Explanation:

Herman Talmadge was the son of Eugene Talmadge. Eugene Talmadge was an American Politician who played a vital role in the state's politics in his three terms Governorship. For the 1947 elections, he was again elected for Governorship, but he died on December 21, 1946, before being inaugurated.

Eugene supporters' after his death elected his son Herman Talmadge for the elections. For the election of Governor after Eugene's death, three men made supporters were elected for the election, which is famously known as 'Three Governors Controversy.' But the Supreme Court chose Melvin Thompson, who was the ongoing Governor.
