Congratulations Ben.
If you aren’t willing to do something yourself then you shouldn’t complain. Words are easy, real change takes effort.
How can you vote for someone new if there´s no one new on ballot….people can be tired of the elected officials but don´t want to run for office themselves.
I guess the complainers weren’t registered voters in Century. Probably lived out of town.
Guess the complainers weren’t that upset.
