Cheers!

I have made my choices and have listed them on the face page and here.

Big Primary Recommendations

Sheriff Billy Woods
Commissioner Matt McClain
Commissioner Craig Curry

Fifth Judicial Circuit:
Erin Daly
Heidi Davis
Ben Boylston

Why am I voting the way I am?

I will explain my reasoning in substantial detail, and I assure you, I will not pull any punches, be mean, or nasty. What many may not know, I’ve had the pleasure to moderate a few forums but attended more than a few; dressed down and blending in. I slipped in late and left early. My oh my, what an eye and ear full of knowledge I’ve gained.

Since I will not be moderating any additional forums or debates, and the August 20th primary is upon us, it’s time to get down to it.

For now, I have a few chores to do, so come back Sunday morning.
