MEMPHIS, Tenn. - A racially charged Democratic primary campaign ended Thursday with an incumbent congressman trouncing the opponent who ran an ad linking him to the Ku Klux Klan.
Early, unofficial results showed Democrat Steve Cohen with nearly 80 percent of the vote to nearly 19 percent for Nikki Tinker, a corporate lawyer who was his chief opponent in the district that covers Memphis.
