One requiring a prescription to purchase more than 28.8 grams of pseudoephedrine annually, to fight meth production;

Isn't the GOP supposed to be for "limited government"?

A Republican shouldn't be that close in a big city like Nashville, but then again, there's not really any such thing as "the city of Nashville." It's a consolidated city-county, so the whole county gets to choose the city's mayor.

I'm waiting for some smart lawyer or judge to slap down consolidated city-counties like this, on the grounds that it imposes taxation without representation against the more urban areas.

Right now, Barry is winning, and it really isn't even that close...

Barry has been declared the winner by about 10 or 11 percentage points.

Why was polling so far off?

Plus, the polls showed them even. Everyone is always gloating about how the GOP does better than the pollsters predict, but this time it wasn't so.
