The Brown List
By Karl-Thomas Musselman
While we wait for Marcus's report this afternoon, I thought I might take a run though the Andy Brown public supporter list to see who he had lined up in this seemingly non-existant primary race (any supporters of Donna Howard or Hugh Brady and Duffy Keever, neither of whom I've heard anything about for quite a long time, please e-mail me at karltm-at-gmail-dot-com or tell them to Step Up.)
I'm sure I'll miss certain people (and there is always the chance that some of these people have the same name as those I know) but here is a short list of who's who and why they may be important.
Things to note? Strama crossover support is high, as are elected officials, and many of the people that have an interest in the neighboring HD 47 race. The info after the jump...
The Honorable Ben Barnes
Jeff Brooks
*(Kelly White's Political Director, nice!)
Cass Robert Callaway
