Gullick Narrowly Fends Off Challenger

Carl Gullick survived a strong primary challenge tonight from Kyle Boyd, retaining his seat by a mere 183 votes. I was out working at some of the polls today and I have to wonder how many Democrats may have voted in the Republican primary in this district to keep Gullick. After all, he is de facto Democrat in a safe Republican seat. The polls I went to had voters overwhelmingly taking part in the GOP primary which arouses my suspicion.
Kyle and everyone who donated their time and money to his candidacy deserve a huge pat on the back for their efforts in coming so close to bringing some needed change to the 48th District. They definitely had ole Carl on the ropes.
