dudeone Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Charles Darwin earns 4,000 write-in votes against creationist Ga. congressman http://www.washingto...c486_story.html By Associated Press, Updated: Thursday, November 8, 5:24 PM ATHENS, Ga. — Charles Darwin earned almost 4,000 write-in votes against a Georgia congressman who denounced evolution and other scientific theories as “lies straight from the pit of hell.” The symbolic votes in Athens-Clarke County were a small percentage of more than 209,000 votes won by Republican Rep. Paul Broun in his unopposed re-election Tuesday. The Athens Banner-Herald reports (http://bitly.com/XnDtgG) that write-in totals weren’t immediately available for the other 24 counties in his district. Broun gave a speech to a church group on Sept. 27 lambasting evolution, embryology and the Big Bang theory. Critics urged voters to write in the 19th-century British naturalist who is considered the father of evolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
