Controversy
Charlie Norwood supports the controversial I-3 corridor through the mountains of North Georgia while it remains highly unpopular with most of his constituents. He pledged to serve only two terms when coming into office and now has served nearly triple that. He has been ill a large part of the last two terms, suffering from a lung disorder that requires him to have oxygen at a number of public functions. He has not lived in the district for quite some time, opting to reside just outside Washington DC near his hospital instead. Norwood made a comment at a recent event at a Farm Bureau speech in Greene County, Georgia, making light of opposition to his radical xenophobic stance on immigration by stating "Many of the Republican Senators are (not?) worth being taken out back behind the barn an shot, and All of the Democrats are (not?) worth being shot." Statehouse candidate Mike Horgan of Washington, GA witnessed this speech as did Chris Hodges of Madison, GA.
