ABC News: Candidate Exits Race After Racist Writings: "In a June 1 posting, Hanks called blacks 'rabid beasts.'
County elections director Michael Dickerson said Hanks formally withdrew from the race Friday morning. He had filed papers seeking the Republican nomination for an at-large council seat.
In January, amid a debate over whether a Confederate battle flag would be allowed to fly over a public cemetery, Hanks scaled a flagpole and reattached the flag. The city later removed both the flag and the pole."
One of the classier Repugnicans.
