Super Tuesday 2024- Where Do We Go From Here?
Well, last week was Super Tuesday in America. A name for the day of Primary Elections in 13 States in America the first Tuesday in March with Alabama being one of them. This year, in addition to Trump vs. Haley, Aderholt vs. Holcomb, and others, we also had 2 important county elections- incumbent Sharon Nethery vs. David Boyett for Probate Judge and incumbent Kevin King vs. Mitchell Puckett for District 2 County Commissioner. Congratulations to Robert Aderholt, David Boyett and Mitchell Puckett to just name a few for winning the primaries here.
It's no secret that I have been writing about some allegations against the current outgoing District 2 County Commissioner that he's been residing with his wife in Amory, MS. outside of his district- a violation of Alabama State Law. The evidence seems convincing that it started after the 2020 election in 2021, and no State Agency/Department would take responsibility of interpreting the law and seeing if it was violated. Definitely a sad "state" of affairs indeed. Also, the Alabama GOP "dropped the ball" so to speak in following up with a challenge and possible appeal. What's equally sad in my opinion is that seemingly some of the people that work for the County have no problem with either not getting to the truth of the matter or with the matter itself. I read on social media recently where someone was asked if they were going to let it go after the election. I don't remember that person's detailed response, but I think he/she said that if the District 2 Commissioner wins, something needs to be done and, even he loses, something should be done so that it is not attempted again. If that was his/her response, I agree.
So, where do we go from here? I understand that things have happened in the past, but this puts another stain on the county we love. Since the District 2 Commissioner lost the election, do we just let it go? We need to try to make sure it doesn't happen again. We can start by trying to get our State Rep. Tracy Estes and/or Senator Greg Reed to push for more and better language to make it clear what the intent of the State law of not residing outside the district for a County Commissioner is, what agency will be responsible for investigating and ruling on such allegations, and enforcement, as well as the responsibilities of the Probate Judge and other Commissioners. Because it could happen again here or any of the other border counties. I have been and will contact them again, will you?
Then there are the constant challenges to our U.S. constitution, runaway economy and national debt, southern border crisis, and more. As I told one young man recently, I'm just one voice among many. But I'm also one of just a very few voices willing to not just share the important relevant news, but also talk about what action can be taken to try to save our constitutional republic if God is willing. Please follow me through any of the ways mentioned below and share them and these articles.
Thanks for reading and considering :-).
