...however, he faces a campaign unlike any he has ever run. Davis has built a career out of persuading people to vote against his opponent--like Bill Simon, the conservative Republican he defeated last November. Now, with voters asked to cast a simple yea or nay on Davis' tenure, he has a more daunting task: persuading people to vote...
