Talk:Jim Walsh

Only?

I don't know the local politics or outcomes of all the elections he has contested, but the statement "Walsh has been re-elected without difficulty, except for in 1996 when he was challenged by Cortland attorney Marty Mack and only won by a 55%-45% margin" seems a bit strange to me. A 10% margin is big by anyone's standards I would have thought. So if that was the tightest contest it would seem to me to make more sense if it read "Walsh has been re-elected without difficulty, with the tightest contest being 1996 when he was challenged by Cortland attorney Marty Mack and won by a 55%-45% margin." --Bob Burton 06:10, 2 Jul 2006 (EDT)
