The financial contributions of the candidates have recently been released. Contributions to Congressman John Barrow far exceed those to his challenger Regina Thomas, at this point in the campaign. However, the information released in The Savannah Moring News fails to mention the fact that Barrow received almost $250,000 from the financial sectors of Health and Lobbyist, nearly $100,000 from the finance and insurance companies and a mere 10% from people within his district. Let me also include that Mr. Barrow received large donations from the Blue Dog PAC, AFLAC, Pfizer, and the National Assn of Retail Druggists. You can view all of this information for yourself at Opensecrets.org. Therefore, when one reviews Barrow's votes on Healthcare and compares this to his donors, it becomes very clear why Mr. Barrow voted against Health Care Twice! We cannot afford to have our Congressional seat for sale! This Year, let’s Wheel Barrow OUT!!!! Angel Gray
