High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Sanford Dixon Bishop Jr. (born February 4, 1947) has been a Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives since 1993, representing the 2nd District of Georgia. The district is located in the southwestern part of the state and includes Albany, Thomasville and most of Columbus. After only one term in the Georgia State Senate, he ran for the Democratic nomination in the 2nd District, which was held by six-term Democrat Charles Hatcher. Bishop finished second behind Hatcher in a crowded six-way primary, forcing Hatcher into a runoff. In the runoff, Bishop attacked Hatcher for bouncing 819 checks in the House banking scandal. In addition, the 2nd had been reconfigured as a black-majority district during congressional apportionment following the 1990 Census. He won handily in November, and was reelected with little difficulty in 1994.
