Elections: 1 966 . . . Jimmy Carter, a state senator from Plains, was a major contender during fhe rorary. A brief movement for a write-in campaign was started at West Georgia, James Gray from Albany was another Democratic hopeful during the primary. Governor Maddox appointed Gray chairman of the state Democratic Party. j« - -r™ - For The malte-shift write-in ■ move- ment on behalf of Arnall gave Georgia ' s election practices a jolt, and placed her on the lips of every news commentator in the country. Former Governor Carl E. Sanders chose wisely to remain silent during the campaign. He ended his four years of commendable service wondering if it would end. Write-In Arnall, a drive to save the state, made a last ditch effort for their candidate; the candidate lost, but the movement made history. All television networks predicted a win for Maddox, but, due to a unique Georgia law requiring a majority of votes, the people elected no governor. According to State law, the House of Representa- tives would pick the governor. The write-in faction tested this law in the Supreme Court, and it stood firm. Lester Maddox became governor of Georgia only one day before the inauguration. He entered office as the choice of politicians, bound to support their political party. He called Himself the People ' s candidate during his campaign, yet the people didn ' t elect him. Only the future can tell us if This Is Maddox Country.
