I saw orange signs advertising the campaign for long time political hopeful Emory Wilkerson, once again running for the District 74 Georgia House seat. Wilkerson is a long time Republican who, despite his qualifications and past leadership has suffered from two important issues in the Clayton County and Fayette County races that he has run: His Race and His Party.
Wilkerson ran for the 74th District seat against Roberta Abdul-Salaam, a one time paralegal and community organizer. Since the 74th resides mostly in Clayton and a tiny bit in Fayette - Wilkerson,a practicing attorney chose to deemphasized his Republican affiliation in his advertising while Ms Abdul-Salaam printed on her signs the subtitle - "A Proud Democrat". In Clayton county this was all that was needed to roll her way into office. On her watch Clayton county has lost their school certification, lost their public transit service and has had gross infighting between the various Democratic cliques that run the county. Despite all of this - nothing can seem to shake the Black voter's confidence in their Democratic leaders. Those who tire of the antics in this dysfunctional county simply pick up and move next door to the Republicans in Henry, Fayette or Coweta counties to the south of Clayton, continuing to vote for the Democrats.
After his 74th district loss Emory Wilkerson, Black Republican - ran for the Clayton County Board in a special election that was open as a result of a death of a board member. Ironically in this majority White and strong Republican county just to the south of Clayton's solid blue constituency there were 4 Blacks and one White running for this seat. 3 of the 4 Blacks where Democrats and then there was Emory Wilkerson.
Whereas in my majority White college the Black students used to settle upon a consensus Black candidate to run for homecoming king and queen and thus successfully win this title on occasion it appears that the White political establishment in Fayette agreed to similarly not split the majority "White vote" among multiple White candidates. Emory Wilkerson, clearly the best qualified candidate - lost yet another election in the area.
I believe that Wilkerson also ran a second campaign for the 74th and possibly for city council. Since I am not sure of this I will not elaborate. It is true, however that the White Republican that beat him out for the county board seat was busted for having a stash of marijuana in his vehicle. Despite a strong attempt to boot him out of office via a lawsuit and a recall effort he has survived and remains in place.
Today as I was reviewing election results I was stunned to see........Emory Wilkerson has become a DEMOCRAT!!!!!!
The one time Black Republican was no doubt frustrated by being out of phase in these two adjacent counties that have extremely different political ideologies in their majority was more frustrated by the clear racial voting that robbed him of what should have been his seat on the present all Republican, all White Fayette County board. Since he couldn't change his race - he decided to change his party.
I am sad to report that Emory Wilkerson (D-GA) has again lost to Roberta Abdul-Salaam (D-GA). While I did not tune in as much to this round of the "Black General Election" in Clayton County - I strongly suspect that Ms Abdul-Salaam was able to overcome any threat to Wilkerson holding her accountable for the damage to the county that occurred on her watch was to point out that "she is a long time Democrat" and that she is glad that "Emory Wilkerson has finally seen the light. Welcome to the good side".
Lee Scott Becomes A Republican
Someone needs to make a documentary on the "Black on Black" politics within Clayton County. It is indeed one of the most interesting dramas that one can find around the nation.
In the present election Lee Scott is running for the Clayton County board as a REPUBLICAN (yes a Republican in Clayton County). His wife is running for the same seat as a Democrat. If they are the last two standing in the general election come November - one of the two promise to drop out so that husband and wife don't have to compete against each other.
Here is what a blog site has forwarded from Lee Scott
LOCAL NEWS FROM CLAYTON COUNTY GEORGIA:
This popped up in my in box this weekend. I thought I would pass it on. Looks like we had better make sure we are keeping a close eye on him and her and other supporters and friends.

Clayton Community and a new Opportunity: A Fortune by Hi Tech.
Thank you for allowing us to come into your homes for the past sixteen years. We visited some of you by TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, billboards, newsletters, postcards, telephone calls, and yes, even yard signs. These promotions were designed to provide you with local news, stories, ads, community education, or community impact and emergency alerts. Much of the information and alerts fell on deaf ears, but thankfully, a few did hit the mark and helped. But here we are now.
My wife and I have no immediate or future political ambitions or plans on the horizon. However, we want to remain a viable part of our community and disseminate information to you that we believe may benefit you and keep you informed. We have been active participants in the development of this community for nearly twenty years and in many local organizations. I am a new member of the Lake Spivey Civic Association. I am considering increasing my participation in this organization and actively engaging in dialogue about important issues that have impacted our Clayton County community and that will continue to impact us futuristically.
One of these issues is that all of our property values have plummeted, some as much as 70% as compared with other Georgia areas, especially in this nation wide recession period. Many businesses have shut their doors while Clayton schools are still on probation. Recently one of the oldest landmark restaurants in our neighborhood, Longhorn Steakhouse on Tara Boulevard shut its doors for good. That is very disheartening and very telling about what is happening economically in our community. Many other businesses are still leaving. Our public transportation system, C-Tran just closed its doors. I am sure that everybody can't be happy with, why and how we got here.
Many tenants are leaving their rental houses and apartments because they and their children cannot take a bus to work and school. Homeowners are abandoning their houses. What will be the impact on the apartment complexes and the houses that cannot be sold or rented? Will this transportation issue further impact the housing value? Will it help or hurt? Yes, the property values are already down and the tax rates are up. Are we pouring gasoline on the flames in an effort to put out a fire? Frankly, no one seems know or have a viable plan. Do you? What are we doing? Even an inexperienced doctor knows a cure is not supposed to kill the patient. Let us attempt to build a financially solid future together.
If you wish, we can have a dialogue to come up with plans and suggestions to address serious community needs, reduce crime and improve our financial situation, including our property values. The zoning overlays look promising. What do you think? I want to hear from you. How do we fix the plight we are in? Do we keep your options open? What are our options? How do we get our property values back? What do you think about the transportation issue? Whose plan failed? Why? Which plan will work? How do we save our homes? What new positive opportunities do we have? Our future is in the choices we make.
Please drop me a line, if you wish? Thank you.

WONDER WHAT TYPE OF MONEY SCAM IS THIS NOW HUMM MAKES ME WONDER SINCE THEIR BEEN HURTING FOR MONEY AS IT ALWAYS APPEARED THAT WAY FROM ALL THEIR PAST AND FUTURE POLITICAL AMBITIONS:
This Reporter Snoopy really doubt anything that Lee or Jewel Scott has to say, since they did over throw the Clayton County Government but legally, but then they did launder over $ 200.000 dollars on his wife Campaign Discloser Forms by the State that is very illegal and still under investigation by the Federal Government when Lee Scott used all his slum lord money from New York that he and his wife got kicked out of New York and with all them fake ass companies he tried to get incorporated thru the State of New York and just like he tried here in the State of Georgia, and Lee always beat his wife up in New York as it been always given the appearance of back then.
But Lee and Jewel Scott wanted to be the New God Father and Mother of Clayton County which they also had moved all the friends and supporters into Clayton County so they can over take the Clayton County Government as Lee and Jewel Scott wasted about 3 million dollars of their own money to put his wife Jewel Scott (Clayton County from DA 2004 thru 2008) and other close friends like Victor Hill (Clayton County Sheriff from 2004 thru 2008) and Leslie Miller Terry (Clayton County Solicitor General from 2004 thru 2008) then they also ran other paid political campaigns with their own money for the other friends like the Ex-Phantom Mayor of the City of Riverdale Phaedra Graham and all these people stated above is nothing but self serving AssClowns that only loves to Waste Taxpayers Money and also in the County Offices stated above they only hired their close friends and family members and also in 1 case a daughter of a crooked State Representatives Roberta Abdul Sallem that is nothing but a totally liar and she never pays her State and Federal Taxes. All these people above are very good close friends and they also took over the Clayton County Democratic Party with their close friends and supporters which has been known to all Lee/Jewel Scott Organized Crime Syndicate, Yep just like another other Crime Organization.
When Jewel Scott (Ex Clayton County DA) and Leslie Miller Terry (Ex Clayton County Solicitor General) did not never prosecuted any cases as there was a Big Huge back logged in cases just like in the Sheriff's Department under Victor Hill as Sheriff when they was back logged in serving warrants.
I just hope the Clayton County Commissioners will sue them all for all of the taxpayers money that was spent on all their salaries that all got paid for 4 years and maybe that money could have saved C-Tran Bus Service in Clayton County hum Yep something for the readers to think about. And everyone knows Lee Scott is no Dr. (Doctor) he has all them FAKE Degrees from them Fake paper mill colleges as they will give you any type of Degree if you pay for it (Threw the Nose).
