Analysis

by: matt

Fri Aug 26, 2005 at 01:00:00 AM EDT

Alan Fox (interview with Matt Ferguson, June, 2005):

MF: Moore represents Arenac, Clare, Gladwin and northern Bay counties...

AF: He beat a Democratic incumbent, getting about 51.5%, while Bush and Kerry were breaking almost exactly even in the district. Kerry led in the district by only about a half a point. So that's been a district that, from the beginning has been tightly contested, and if the Democrats have a strong candidate may feel they've got another shot at it.
