“One of the Legislature’s experts on environmental issues, longtime Sen. Steve Henson, D-Tucker, was instrumental in fighting off a Republican attempt to erode protections on stream buffers. He’s equally solid in his support for protecting worker rights. Henson’s experience makes this race no contest.”

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

“In Senate District 41, Democratic incumbent Steve Henson is challenged by Republican first-time candidate Frank Auman, a businessman with a finance background. While impressive and smart, Auman doesn’t make a real argument for replacing Henson, who is highly effective in the Senate and has shown a real commitment to environmental protection and health care reform.”
