With 67.8% of the vote counted for Governor in Alabama Agriculture commissioner Ron Sparks is destroying current congressman from AL-07 Artur Davis. It looks like Davis' vote against healthcare reform did not go over well with Dems statewide.

With 73.2% of the vote in, Progressive Shelia Smoot is down by a few hundred votes over establishment candidates to fill Davis AL-07 seat. Daily Kos' help was huge for their campaign. Win or lose, great job y'all.

Turncoat Democrat Parker Griffith was handily defeated in the Republican primary for AL-05. You can see why he switch parties, the turnout for the R primary dwarfed the turnout for the Ds.
