It shouldn't take 40 posts (amusing as they were) to note a very capable GA-4 GOP candidate in Chris Vaughn needs the help of every FReeper.

If Buh-wheat polls 25% or more, Chris could win.

That’s a pretty big could. Johnson won in ‘10 with 75-25; John Lewis in the neighboring 5th won with 74-26, and David Scott won with 69-31.

How do you figure Vaughn (or any R nominee) needs anything below 35%? And that’s only if Johnson and McKinney split the remaining vote equally.

What was the lowest percentage to win a Congressional seat?

Off the top of my head NM-2 1980: Joe Skeen 38%, David King 34%, Dorothy Runnels 28%.
(I recall the race — had to look up the numbers)
