Dennis Wiggins of Killam Road, Century, prefiled Monday for the job. He will run on the 2012 ballot as an independent with no party affiliation.

Sam Archer of Cantonment was the first candidate to announce for the seat back on June 15. He will run as a Republican.

    It’s not so much why I deserve a vote. It’s simple. I believe in REPRESENTATIVE government – not “POLITICKIN’.” I have a plan that will allow EVERYONE opportunities to meet with me personally and give me the feedback necessary to vote the way the majority says. More to come . . . .

    I hope Kevin White is out as county Commissioner but I’m worried that having several candidates opposing may actually split the vote and benefit the incumbent.

    His supporters don’t even know how to turn off their caps lock keys, so maybe he can be had.

    Mr. Wiggins, tell us why you deserve our vote, sir.

    we need fresh blood in a commissioners seats. they need people that is not so rich because they dont care about the poor people.if the county is so bad off why did we have to pay for one of our commission to go to france? they have money for what they want to.i’m sure hes on vacation to and he has plenty of money made off the land deal.

    I WILL AGAIN SUPPORT KEVIN WHITE TO RETAIN HIS DIST. #5 SEAT. KEVIN IS A GOOD ,HONEST PERSON AND I FEEL HE HAS DONE ALOT FOR MOLINO AND THE NORTH END OF THE COUNTY. HE WILL LISTEN TO ANYONE THAT HAS A PROBLEM AND WILL ACTUALLY RETURN YOUR PHONE CALLS. WE SHOULD BE GLAD TO HAVE SOMEONE LIKE KEVIN WHITE WORKING FOR US, A BUSINESS MAN THAT UNDERSTANDS WHAT IS NEEDED TO GET THE JOB DONE.HE HAS SAVED ALOT OF OUR TAX MONEY FROM BEING SPENT ON CRAZY AND USELESS THINGS. WE ALL SHOULD SUPPORT HIM. I DO NOT KNOW THE OTHER TWO MEN RUNNING. I’M SURE THEY ARE GOOD PEOPLE WITH SOME GOOD IDEAS TOO ,BUT I HAVE KNOWN KEVIN WHITE A LONG TIME AND I LIKE WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR US.

    Kevin White does not have a chance, even though I am an independent, I will vote for Sam Archer.

    The more the merrier, may the best person win…You may not know it but In the current Florida election laws that are set up to favor the incumbent…The primary candidate does NOT have to get a majority only the most votes (Or one more) then face other party affiliates…I want to see Kevin White gone, after he pushed The type of gabling that is not even alowed @ Atmore, now we have it at the Dog track. If you had family members with addictions you would know why i feel so strongly against it.
