MACON, Ga. — All eyes are on Georgia’s Congressional District 2 race which has been called the state’s most highly contested U.S. House races this year.
The district stretches from Macon to Columbus and all the way down to the south Georgia line.
Representative Sanford Bishop has held the seat for nearly three decades. Now, he’s vying against Thomasville Republican Chris West.
The district has already shown surprises this election season. Back in the primary, voters nominated attorney and developer Chris West over West Point graduate Jeremy Hunt.
Now, the political newcomer will face off against 30-year congressional veteran Sanford Bishop.
It’s being called the state’s tightest U.S. House race.
