Former U.S. Senator Sam Nunn contributes & offer his support to Ken Hodges Campaign for Attorney General. Is that the same as I say...... Endorsement?

The campaign of former Albany-Dougherty County District Attorney Ken Hodges has received the support of former U.S. Senator Sam Nunn (D-Ga)

In an email sent out to supporters from the Hodges for Georgia campaign states just that. In a letter to Ken Hodges from Senator Nunn, he writes:

"I am particularly impressed by your extensive background as District Attorney in Albany and by your remarkable record of dedicated and effective public service and civic engagement. It is also significant that the people who know you best from your leadership in the Albany area are vigorous and enthusiastic supporters."
"I am enclosing a campaign contribution as an indication of my support and my confidence that you will serve Georgia with honor and integrity if elected Attorney General."

Now with the support of Sam Nunn, how will this affect the democratic primary with State Rep. Rob Teilhet? Hodges already has the support of Leah-Ward Sears, former Chief Justice of the Ga Supreme Court and former U.N. Ambassador, Atlanta Mayor, Civil Rights Icon Andrew Young.

And with controversy surounding Hodges over the Phoebe Puntey Case down in Albany, grabbing the support of one of, or if not the greatest Senator Georgia has ever produced tells me that case must not be a big deal. Nunn had to know about the accusations leveled at Hodges, because if he did, no way Nunn would have given his support to Ken Hodges.
