People? Reality check? This is not a district with particularly many old-style Southern Democrats. Though it does have them, including a few that voted Democratic until 2008 (exclusive) for President, and far more that did until 2008 (inclusive) for Congress. The 48% Obama coalition here consists of Tallahassee State Government and Uni Libruls plus some rural Blacks. This district is not trending anywhere. (The trend map on the Atlas is deceptive; the two counties shown in red on that have two thirds of the population.) This means that Democrats have a hard time getting those final points now, but it also means Al Lawson has a very high floor.
Thank you.
