The numbers; read 'em and weep

Following a light turnout in most precincts, here are the results from the State Board of Elections for a few primaries that might interest area political aficionados:

Democrats

State Senate District 9:
McEachin -- 58%
Lambert -- 42%
Payback equals a 16% margin.

House District 74:
Morrissey -- 38%
Miles -- 27%
Three others -- 35%
He's ba-a-ack!

Republicans

State Senate District 12:
Stosch -- 51%
Blackburn -- 49%
The incumbent wins, but only by a nose.

State Senate District 24:
Hanger -- 53%
Sayre -- 47%
What now for the losing SWACsters?

House District 72:
Massie -- 58%
Wheat -- 34%
What's the difference?
