That’s the other Georgia this time — the beautifully wild, ancient country in the Caucasus Mountains that is holding its crucial presidential election today.

At stake is the political future of Georgia’s people. Will the currently-ruling party — the authoritarian Georgian Dream Party — retain its power; or will a coalition of Western-leaning parties win the day, bringing the country closer to EU membership?

I’ll be anxiously awaiting the results later today, so stay tuned. Hopefully there won’t be any delays with the new electronic ballot system. Good luck, Georgia!

Just sayin’ . . .
