Former rivals support Oscar Brock on election night
At least two GOP candidates who ran against Oscar Brock in the October 4 primary for the District 10 seat won yesterday by Democrat Andy Berke were on hand to lend their support for their party's nominee as the election results were being tallied.
During his concession speech, Mr. Brock pointed out Mark Albertini of Chattanooga and Basil Marceaux of Soddy-Daisy, both of whom were in attendance at the celebration-cum-commiseration. Brock heaped praise on Albertini in particular for the amount of effort he said his former political foe poured into the general election campaign.
I am not aware that either of the Marion County GOP primary candidates, Oscar Brown and Travis Layne, was at the event. I also wonder whether any of the Democratic candidates who were beaten last month made it to the Berke festivities. (Those would be Ken Jordan, Lee Whitaker, and John Wolfe.)
