- The correct name is "Sam Nunn", he's _not_ currently up for election
- (the Georgia U.S. Senate seat up for election is held by Wyche Fowler),
- and the last time Nunn ran for reelection he ran unopposed -- the
- Republicans didn't run anyone against him, so don't jump for a "third-
- party" candidate that doesn't exist in this state.
-
- The Libertarians _may_ run someone against Nunn in 1996 (given their
- success this year, getting 3% of the vote in the Seante race and
- forcing a first-ever runoff between the Republican and Democratic
- nominees), but don't hold your breath.
