Unabashed Racist Wins GOP Primary in Tenn.



By WOODY BAIRD, Associated Press Writer

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - An unabashed racist will represent the Republican party in the November election for a congressional seat after a write-in candidate failed to derail his effort.

With 86 percent of the primary vote counted Thursday, write-in candidate Dennis Bertrand had just 1,554 votes compared to 7,671, or 83 percent, for James L. Hart, a believer in the discredited, phony science of eugenics.

In November, the GOP candidate will oppose Rep. John Tanner, a Democrat who has represented the northwest Tennessee district for 15 years.

Hart, 60, vows if elected to work toward keeping "less favored races" from reproducing or immigrating to the United States. In campaign literature, Hart contends that "poverty genes" threaten to turn the United States into "one big Detroit."

3. he wont win

Gore actually did win that district though by a close margin, Tanner is a conservative democrat and does good there, oh and and he is in F-911 if anyone is curious.

6. Correct me if I am wrong, but

Isn't Gore from Carthage, in Smith County? Tanner's district doesn't come anywhere close to Smith County. That is unless I am wrong, which I'm not.

5. It shows the danger of a simple Party Line Vote

I find it very scary that people don't bother to look at what these idioits believe. I don't think that any of us honestly believe that most republican would support this guy. It just goes to show that they will vote for anything. I think that I will put my dog on the ballot next time.
