James "Major" Woodall, Georgia Youth and College Division NAACP state president, a senior at Georgia Southern University and a sergeant in the U.S. Army Reserve, recently took on a new role: Democratic Party candidate for Georgia House of Representatives in District 160. With Woodall the only Democrat and incumbent Rep. Jan Tankersley the only Republican, they will appear unopposed on their parties' separate ballots in the May 24 primary. So, voters must wait until Nov. 8 to decide this contest.
