County Commissioner Position Who to vote for?

I must encourage all Republicans to come together as soon as possible and get some traction on this March 21st Election before it is too late.

With 3 Republicans and 2 Democrats running, something wicked this way comes.

The Democrats have not run in a County Wide race in quite a few elections. Their struttin' their stuff when they put up two candidates. We need to put them back where they belong, in obscurity. But how?

Well thats the question...

We have two unknown Republicans running. One that runs a transmission shop, with no experience at all, and who has never darkened the door of a commission hearing or been to a single republican event.

We have another black candidate who also is an unknown. He arrives at one or two Republican Breakfasts and decides he is a Republican and wants our vote....

Then there is Emory Wilkerson who has
1.)run twice before as a Republican. He has run in Districts that were strong Democratic areas, but he fought hard.
2.)He has served on the Executive Board of the Fayette Republican Party.
3.)He is the only dues paying member to the Republican Party of any of the candidates.
4.)He has spoken at the Ronald Reagan Tribute during the week of morning and helped celebrate Ronald's 25th anniversary election with us.
5.)He has been involved at the grass roots level trying to set an example of what true conservative politicians should be.
6.)He is an attorney with trial and appellant court experience.
7.)He is also a good father and husband to a Fayette family that we all can be proud of.

The Democrats are awash with "anybody come latelys" whose only hope is that the Republicans screw up and give them a chance to squeak by.

The Republicans have a real choice to be made.

Support two new Republicans who have never shown any interest in public service prior to this election.....

Or Emory Wilkerson who has been fighting the good fight, proudly as a Republican for many, many years.

If the Republicans splinter their vote to these "johnny come latelys" we may end up with a county commissioner who represents the only Democratic seat on the board...

Do we really want this?

Please, don't let this happen in our County. We need to remain strong now, or sometime in the near future, Fayette will become another County like Clayton that is exclusively controlled by the Democrats.

If we give them an inch, then, trust me, they will take a mile.

Wow! What happened to all the comments that were posted here since this post first appeared on Wednesday? Did someone erase them? For what reason? Maybe censorship - since someone didn't like the conversation about race? Cal was that you? Or did Peter/carpediem repost? It is still censorship. Let's march!
