Who Finances A Better South Walton?

[Bob Wells]

It appears that many of the donors who aren't highly thought of would fall within the area of incorporation. Politics being what they are, who is to say those folks wouldn't dump large sums of cash to get folks elected as is currently happening. I know, I am a cynic. I will give ask a question, did Commissioner Jones win the vote in those polling places south of the bay?

Are you giving or asking?

If I remember correctly (someone correct me if I'm wrong) C. Jones didn't fair well in the district she is supposed to represent but did well in SoWal.

Asking. I thought that also, which leads me to believe that those folks who want incorporation may find themselves in the same situation as they are currently.

Actually, Cecelia Jones did well throughout the County. You can asked Commissioners Brown, Glidewell and Pridgen about the results.

Actually she lost in the North but won by a wide enough margin in the 4 south precincts to win.

She won several precincts within her district. The other precincts within her district were won variously by other candidates. I'm not sure about the relevance. Do votes within a district count more? I thought it was a county-wide election, no?

 

[Bob Wells]

The purpose of my comment was that she won in the south end precincts which could lead me to believe that those who spend money supporting a candidate for a city commission seat could very well throw enough money you sway the vote and really dash the hopes of those to want more of a say in how a city could operate.

Thank you Bob!
Some folks should stick to arguing about things they think know...like Trump.

As I recall she won because of the votes of people that didn't really know her.

Oh they knew her alright...maybe not across the bridge but in Freeport and the Blue Crew campaign to get her elected.
