How bout only maybe? Tom "The Dean" Humphrey talks about the possible switch that could come on the ballot. Currently Dems go first at the top of the ballot. The Dems switched it a few years back to help them in the polls when Repubs started to gain seats. The theory is that the top name is usually good for 3 to 5 percent of the vote.
Now the shoe is on the other foot. A flip in the other direction could be heading to polls near you soon but some fun could erupt if Tre' Hargett and Mark Goins want to put some extra pressure on some legislators in the mean time.
Instead of making the flip automatic and saying the party in control of the legislature goes on top, they could say the party of the local election coordinator goes on top. This would put a little more pressure on the Republican legislators who control who that person is to appoint a Republican election coordinator.
Just a thought.
