| Description | Anniston - The man grasped the wooden pew in front of him with both hands and, leaving his cane on his seat beside him, rose from near the back of church. His clouded eyes wandered around the small chapel ceiling as he asked the candidate, "I would like to know if you are responsible for the article saying that Rev. McKinney took money to tell people how to vote."
Larry Barton faced this man, W.A. Farrior, and, shuffling through his papers, said yes. It was his ad, and he had a copy of it right here.
"Would you like me to read it to you?" Barton said.
"Yes, as I can't read it," Farrior replied.
Barton began to read the names from his ad as the audience in the church listened.
Talladega residents will tell you this Monday night scene is typical of the Alabama Senate District 11 Democratic primary race. It's a race some politely term "interesting." Others openly call it "a mess." |
