Reed Concedes Georgia Lieutenant Governor Primary Run
Ralph Reed, former Christian Coalition leader, concedes defeat in Georgia GOP lieutenant governor primary after a campaign shaped by ties to lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Casey Cagle wins with 56 percent as Reed vows to continue promoting conservative values. In Alabama, George Wallace Jr loses to Luther Strange for lieutenant governor. Reed faced scrutiny over Abramoff connections and more than 5.3 million from Indian tribes, though he was not charged. Reed urged supporters to stay in the fight as November elections approach.
