Why would 3 candidates who....
1. Has been on council for 8 years and has done nothing more than share information concerning legislature that anyone can get on line!
2. Two candidates, who have never stepped inside council chambers in the past 3 years except for the last 4 months!
3. Have never been seen volunteering their time for anything having to do with the City!
Now I say isn't that the most DYNAMIC thing you have ever experienced? What makes any if them think they have what it takes to WORK to take Freeport into the future?
Please take this seriously and do what is right for Freeport.

FYI "Freeport Facts" is Scott B...and well, we all know his reputation as a politician (former county commissioner) who has beef with his cousin Elizabeth Brannon. And no one gives two shits about your puppeteer tactics. Your run in politics ended a looooooong time ago. Run back to rehab little boy.
No reflection on anyone running for office....Scott Brannon hasn't been real successful in rehab or as a Commissioner. Anyone who takes him seriously is a joke.

Elizabeth Brannon was the only vote for helping with sewer in Brandon oaks. The rest decided not to help and go against the county's offer of help. They where going to pay for all homes to be put on septic. Freepot would pay nothing. but they would drop tap fee.Since the rest voted no Freeport is in danger on losing after and sewer franchise to regional. This in turn will mean freeport will be left with no income. With any Luck will become unincorporated, and become part of county.

I don't have a witch in the hunt for Freeport elected officials.Just to name a few. Lol!!!
I do however think the term "Honest Politician" is an oxymoron!
I have seen grown men (ELECTED OFFICIALS) sacrifice their own morals and integrity to cavort all over Walton County with a young woman, not their wife whom they left at home, only to have the girlfriend out them on their own personal Facebook page who are still in office despite assurances from the Superintendent that it would be addressed.
I have seen grown men (ELECTED OFFICIALS) sacrifice their own morals and integrity and the integrity of the WCSO and the DFS PD fudge their certifications to keep their paycheck, get elected and then re-elected. I've seen them admit their shortcomings with promises to never do it again only to do it again and again once elected. More on that to come.
I've seen a "woman" (elected official) who never had any integrity or morals get elected and then re-elected, who has managed to increase her net worth from that of a retired elementary school teacher too almost 1.2 million dollars once elected by lying, cheating and stealing whatever she could and use her political cronies in the State Attorney's Office, as well as a developer with more money than good sense to help her do it. I've also witnessed first hand her husbands rage and threats to citizens who dared to question either of them.
Last but not least we now have the postman that got elected who I honestly think never had a mind of his own, whose election was bought and paid for by the man with more money than good sense. His integrity was lost the moment he crawled in the proverbial "sack" with money and the woman who never had any morals integrity or character to start with.

If you look since the new mayor took over nothing has been done. Pool was already here. The publix was already coming,4lane already was on way.hammock bay already going.
The rest of them have spent money with no consequence at all. They have no idea what is legal and what's not!While in office,Think they should look at all spending and billing from when Russ barley took over, would be iteresting to see what was in bank then compared to now.I have heard from some county officials that they weren't doing good in the financial dept..should be looked at by state. A lot of stories out there if half true they should all be in trouble.

So now that I'm thoroughly confused...
Who are the candidates for the election and who are the incumbents?
Who has what issue with who and why should I care?
Aside from Freeport hiring Sara Bowers (the many years tenured Financial Director for the Yak (DFS) )what's the big deal? They are getting all their funding $$$ Right?
You pave a bridge and expect it to last.
Audit, What's That?

I heard there sewer plant failed and In trouble with state.something about checks wrote to family members for over ten thousand signed by only 1 person.the pool can not acount for all money taken In over last few years.mr. Farris will only vote for who mrs cuchens votes for. The mayors grand daughter and mrs Brannon's daughter also Worked for city.I also heard nothing gets passed without a lady name latilda being made happy. Think grand jury might have to look in as they did Walton county.

I think "Latilda" is very familiar with law enforcement, the three letter kind.
Listen, I'd love for a Grand Jury to be impaneled to look into Freeport, but that's local State Level Stuff. You get Bill Eddins, Mike Adkinson and Co. It's a dog and pony show. Look back at the Grand Jury that looked at the Planning Department. It was an absolute farce and complete bull

Beach Days, I don't know who you are and don't care. But I do know Eddie Farris. He is a good man with a sterling reputation who isn't even running this year. Anyone who knows Eddie, especially those who worked with him, know he is his own man and will stand up for what he believes in. He has never went with the crowd. And Latilda is not running for anything either and has been a public servant in this county for a long time. She does not deserve to be drug through the mud either. In fact, to my knowledge all the candidates in Freeport are good people who wish to serve the public. I think it would be better to tell people why you are for who you are for rather than spread innuendo and nebulous claims of wrongdoing. If you have documentation, show it and give people time to digest it prior to the election.

Scott Brannon is a has been that is just a hanger on to Lloyd Blue is my opinion. My info is Scott is blaming all of this on Jay Odum. Scott use to blame Lloyd and sent awful e mails about him. One of which I gave to the NWFDaily news and was printed. My guess is Scott has become a pain in Adkinson , Blue and others butts he is a loose cannon and who ruined his political career .

Oh yes only fools or Scott use 4or 5 different fake names so they can have a conversation with themselves on SoWall. Too funny. Scott if you do not like what I say you know how to contact me.

I overheard him at the Bay restaurant one night telling someone that Freeport should be renamed "Odomville". Everybody knows he has been grooming Kasey Cuchens (Cecilas best friend) for a County Comission run. His three picks for City Council in Freeport just lost.

I agree with you. It's really kinda sad, the young man had great potential once upon a time. It's a shame he didn't make better personal choices and decisions! Just sad!

The future of Freeport? Sad! Less than 15% of the population came out to vote..what does that say? Then 3 people were put on council by a private organization..... Youth baseball and softball, a group that cares only for their sport and nothing else. They want the public sports complex as their own park to do what they want. Requesting to not have to pay " because it's for the kids" . If it's for the kids why do they charge 85.00 per child and another 15.00 if you don't volunteer? They boast to have over 250 players. If you do the math that's over 21,000 without fundraising, sponsors and concession money. Where does all that money go? Parents have to buy pants, socks, etc. Shirts are sponsored. They do nothing for the city in return except ask for more! Now they say that since the 3 women council no longer have a vote, and they now have a voice on council, they are going to "take back their park" and get rid of the parks director. Why do they they not consider the other users of the park? Their organization should not have control over a city owned complex. It's a sad state if they get away with it and the elected officials side with a particular user group. If it's for the kids and you have no expenses, why not show it and cut your fees in half? Why not give back? Why let people who don't even live in Freeport be the voice of your organization? Talk about bullies..... Heather, Beth and Leslie.... You are NOT what I would want around my children, and definitely NOT a person I would want around our youth. Trash talking, lies, bullying, self absorbed women (actually children) who must have nothing better to do with their lives. Too bad you can't put a tenth of your effort into something positive. And newly elected officials? SHAME on you if you agree with their tactics, you will ruin any chance of progress for the city and be played the fool.

The new info on the Organized Teams for kids is quite interesting.
Please keep us posted on that.
I recall something in the south end a few years ago with Soccer and some allegation of a scam involving someone from the County.
Youth leagues are definitely big $.

If its any consolation to you, historically Defuniak Springs only has about 400 people out of a population of about 6000 that turn out to vote. The same 400 people who have made decisions about what best for themselves and to hell with anyone who doesn't go along to get along.
