Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss [3] will have a few more weeks to cool his heels before Democrats in Georgia [4] nominate a candidate — of the five Democratic candidates running in yesterday's primary, nobody was able to capture more than 50 percent of the vote. That means a runoff will be held on Aug. 5 between Vernon Jones [5] and Jim Martin [6].

Also yesterday, voters whittled down the competition in two Alabama [7] districts, where runoff elections were held for two open seats. Reps. Terry Everett [8] (R) and Bud Cramer [9] (D) had announced their retirement, and primaries were held back in June. However, no Republican candidates in the districts were able to meet the 50-percent threshold required to secure the nomination.

This time around, Jay Love [10], an Alabama state legislator, won the GOP nomination for CD-02, while Wayne Parker [11] (a vice president for an insurance firm) did the same in the 5th district.

As part of Congresspedia's Wiki the Vote [12] project, citizen journalists from around the country (and even some candidates!) have been logging information about the candidates' positions, biographies and records. A full list of the candidates and their professions are below, but you can also find them at their respective state portals via the Wiki the Vote project homepage [12]. We need your help to find out more about these candidates, so if you know something about them please add it to their profile. (You can always contact [13] one of the staff editors for help.)
