Almost Primary Time

The primary is May 11th a week from today, and the only interesting race really is the Treasurer's race. With 29 State Senators backing Tony Fulton I think has the inside edge even though the Governor is staying out of it the members of the unicameral are not. Even then the voters may dissolve the Treasurers office but thats not likely to happen I don't believe. Lee Terry will probably walk to renomination over the party water carrier Matt Sakalosky. The District 4 race for Public Service Commission is a fight between republican candidates but look for incumbent Rod Johnson to be re-elected again to another 6 year term. Rep. Jeff Fortenberry is fending off two other republicans and four democrats are running to replace him. It won't happen Fortenberry will return to Congress for a fourth term.
