Does anyone else think whoever is selling the purported list of Georgia’s voters is setting the price too low? If so, you can scoop up that bargain (and 18 other states’ rolls) according to a report in ZDNet. The technology news website didn’t list the “popular hacking forum” where the information is being sold, but according

The Democrat currently running for Lieutenant Governor, Sarah Riggs Amico, managed to get through her entire primary and much of the general election without much scrutiny or publicity. Her biography and resume have mostly been taken at face value. She’s labeled an outsider with Harvard MBA and as a “successful businesswoman”. One of the roles
This week’s Courier Herald column: “When you come to a fork in the road, take it.” – Yogi Berra Georgians are at a fork in the road. For the past eight years, Georgians have had the same Governor, the same Lieutenant Governor, and the same Speaker of the House. They are all Republicans. Only one

This week’s Courier Herald column: It is wise to be wary of “national conversations” that we have right before elections.
