Palin Campaigning for Chambliss in Runoff Race

Alaska Governor and former Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin is in town today to campaign for Senator Saxby Chambliss. The Republican senator is in a runoff with Democratic challenger Jim Martin.

Palin was slated to make four stops for Chambliss, starting off in Augusta. Palin is scheduled to make an appearance at the Gwinnett Center at 4 p.m.

Both Chambliss and Martin are in a runoff after neither managed to cross the 50 percent margin in the Nov. 4 general election.

Republicans hope to hold onto the seat as Democrats inch closer to the 60 votes they would need to prevent Republican filibusters.
