Al.com: HUNTSVILLE, AL -- Mo Brooks has won the Republican nomination for 5th Congressional District without a runoff.
Brooks said incumbent Parker Griffith called him and conceded just a few minutes ago.
Brooks won 51 percent of the vote (35,712) to Griffith's 33 percent (23,494). Les Phillip won 16 percent (11,066).
Bummer! I introduced all of you to Les Phillip on this blog. I admit I wasn’t watching this race a closely as I should have. I thought his kicking video might have been just the thing to move him up.
It is rather disheartening to see him come in behind Democrat turn Republican Parker Griffith. Why on earth were Republicans voting for Griffith? Before some silly lefty raise the color thing, white Ron Sparks beat black Artur Davis for the Democrat nomination gubernatorial primary.
Are there any Alabama readers who followed these races who want to tell us some first hand accounts?
