The special election to fill Senator Thurman Adams’s seat is today. The polls are open from 7 AM – 8 PM. This should be an interesting race, there are four candidates: Republican Joe Booth (current Rep. for the 37th RD), Democrat Polly Adams Mervine (Senator Adams’s daughter), Libertarian Wendy Jones and Independent Matt Opalinski. Booth is probably favored to win this race but with four candidates anything can happen!
