Today is the last day for early voting, and election day is next Tuesday, Aug. 14th. There are 3 BCC seats up for grabs, and SoWal needs to really turn out, as 2 of the races will be decided next Tuesday (no Dem challenger in Districts 1 and 5).
We have the opportunity to finally create a real strategic plan for Walton County, and SoWal will play a huge part in the formation and implementation of that plan. We attended the first visioning meeting last night, and the discussion began about how to get a plan truly rolling and end up with something concrete and useable. We were supporters of Cindy before, but now that we see what the needs will be for the county in terms of strategic planning, we are convinced that her skill set, experience, and commitment to SoWal is the best fit for District 5.
We need somebody who is ready to go to work on day #1, without a huge learning curve. She is a planner by education and experience and knows the ins and outs of Walton County. There are no ties to developers, special interests, or businesses, nor would she benefit personally or professionally from this position- she is just ready to get the county moving forward again.
This is your opportunity to make a difference. Here's what I stand for:
