LAFAYETTE - State officials Tuesday are monitoring the state House First District special election between Republican Jay Neal and Democratic incumbent Mike Snow. <br>
<br>
A judge ordered the special election after hundreds of voters cast ballots in the wrong district in November. <br>
<br>
Neal edged Snow by just 195 votes in the general election in the district, which includes most of Walker County in northwest Georgia. <br>
<br>
The Republican Party requested that the secretary of state's office monitor the election. <br>
<br>
Neal says his staff has heard talk that problems still are present. He says the state monitors' presence would bring more certainty to the election.
