Mask is House District 31 Winner
Despite being outspent, sources say Republican Barry Mask garnered 59% of the vote to defeat Democratic opponent and Tallasee mayor Bobby Payne in a special election to replace Jack Venable who passed away on 11/18/05 and held the seat for 32 years.
Good news for Republican candidates as they attempt to gain a substantial number of seats in the House and Senate. Polls from a few weeks back showed Mask leading by 10 points winning 55-45. Whatever the Mask campaign did since then worked wonders.
Barry Mask will be officially sworn in on Tuesday.
