Savannah 2011 Election page
On this page, you can find links to all of my posts about the 2011 elections in Savannah and Chatham County.
As I have noted previously, I do not plan to endorse individual candidates, but I am weighing in on various ballot initiatives and publishing some commentary of races and issues. I plan to delete this page (the individual posts will obviously remain) after the November election and likely runoffs are concluded.
