    I hope these ladies put one of these things on for the Sheriffs race. It would be interesting to see how our current Sheriff can defend his own record now that he can’t ride on McNesbys back any more. Please have it in the north end so we can all ask a few questions about promises made and not kept. A good place would be Frans if we can convince her to let Morgan in for it.

    Can anyone attend this forum? Some questions you have to ask yourself about each person that is running.

    •Does 30 years of executive (real-estate) experience for one person count?
    •If someone sues’ for disability how can they obtain another Job and put up all these signs?
    •Why not stay teaching Kids? He changed schools every year. Was he run off?
    •Do we need someone with a criminal record? A DUI?
    •Do we need a Bar owner?
    •Where is the money coming from? (The candidate? Down Town business? Or the people of district 5)?

    These are some very serious questions that each person should ask before walking in the voting booth. Make sure you do your research and make sure we put the correct person that is not part of the down town crowd.

    I do agree, this should be held within the District 5 area. I want to hear what Sam Archer has to say. I think he will make a difference for Dist. 5. He has to do better than Kevin White did, which was nothing!

    I guess this just a fund raiser. If it was for voters to get to know the candidates, it would be held in District 5. Umm
