Davis is a joke..Augusta voters get what they deserve. Quit voting for morons like Davis. I cannot believe the GBI isn’t investigating him..it’s pathetic..
Pass the Buck Hardie. I can’t believe he turned down an opportunity to lead a lead a parade.
Either North Augusta or Columbia County will pick up the parade. Things are really moving everywhere outside of Augusta.
Downtown Augusta is in danger of losing the Saint Patrick’s day parade, not like it brings any business downtown or anything!
ST PATRICK’S DAY IRISH PARADE IS THE BIGGEST DRAW FOR DOWNTOWN…bringing lots of hungry and thirsty customers to downtown businesses that are now mostly restaurants….Augusta sadly needs new leadership.
The city of Augusta is pathetic and it’s because the voters are fooled year after year after year. They vote self-serving, lying crooks in office. Hardly Davis is a great example. I can’t believe he promised to be at the parade 5 years abd was always a no-show! I wish this organizer would’ve announced this after the first time!!
I will be so glad when Hardee Davis is replaced by someone who is competent and honest and does the job that mayors are elected to do minus the politics!
Now, what empirical track record evidence do you have to support that theory?
THE VET DAY PARADE IS A MUST … amazing the mayor’s office drops the ball when anyone “transitions” out … well maybe there needs to be more “transitions out” in that office.
“transitioned out” = left town before the indictment is unsealed.
What happened to the original paperwork that was submitted. Did the person that transitioned out of the mayor’s office take the paperwork with them—kinda doubt it. Must be misplaced along with the mayor’s receipts. Also wasn’t all county employees given $800 in the early part of this year due to COVID, and that was by mistake; only first responders were supposed to have received the money.
This is a clear effort to flip District 3. Commissioner Catherine McKnight Smith who district is being effected the most asked to be on this committee but was denied the votes.
Recall how when consolidation came about that here would be five white and five black commissioners? Well, looking at the changing of the district lines it will be more like 7-3 or 6-4. Time for West Augusta, Forest Hills, and the Hill to secede and to to Columbia County along with their tax money.
Joining North Augusta wouldn’t be bad because the folks running it appear to have their heads screwed on correctly. But, they are in SC and that wouldn’t work.
Oh, by the way, Davis is a hack.
We are basically at 7 to 3 now with conservatives being the 3. If this committee gets their way and they are certainly heading in that direction we will be at 8 to 2.
What does it take to secede from Richmond to Columbia County? I’m in Montclair subdivision, and it would be simple to draw the new line. Will a petition do it. I’ll volunteer to hand carry one through the neighborhood.
What a jackass
“B” list stripper actress—Who dat?
Move all parades to Columbia County.
I agree fully with what John Clarke said. The map makes no sense. And why is Summerville and Forest Hills that has the biggest Grove being cut up? This is ridiculous! Looks like gerrymandering to me.
As the daughter of a WWII and Korean War veteran, this is unacceptable. My father served 20 years and risked his life to serve this country. How does this happen in a military community? Maybe we can help raise funds with a Go Fund Me campaign to pay for the parade.
