State Representative Linda Dean Campbell coasted to victory in todays primary, winning by a margin by a 54-46 percent margin, or about 450 votes. I will post the full precinct by precinct results first thing tommorow. My congratulations to Rep. Campbell, who carried all geographic areas of the community in substantially widening the margin she achieved in her first victory two years ago.

Campbell withstood a deeply negative campaign launched against her, and did so with dignity and class. I look forward to continuing to work with her, and applaud her grace under fire.
