When Robert Ingham did run he never had to pay for qualifying fees because he ran as an indigent. And I remember no one put him up to it, he just ran and ran and ran!
Spot on as usual!
I have been saying for years that the commissioners need a regular full time salary and at least one staff member. Augusta needs commissioners who understand and can run the huge business that is ARC. We are the second largest metro area in the state. We need to be able to attract knowledgeable people for all the seats.
Pay the commission, dump the mayor..with the money he wastes you could pay the commission (the people that actually have a vote) a salary..
We will have to go to lunch one of these days Michael so you can see how many times my phone rings. I certainly am fine with it though. It’s what my job is all about constituents needs.
Ohhh – I didn’t even think to mention you. You probably get tired of me calling you. You are great commissioner and your constituents love you. You were my great commissioner until I moved and was very proud that you were my commissioner.
Gack! You forgot to mention Ms. McKnight because you were too busy using the pronoun “I” about 28 times in your self-aggrandizing, smug, I know something you don’t know opinion piece. You should ask Sylvia Cooper for help the next time you write one. What a waste of electrons.
Thank you again for being one of my biggest supporters! We have to sit down and go to lunch one day so maybe you can get out all of your – #frustration. There is a lot of built of anger for some reason. I will continue to pray for you and your healing – I hope you get that hate out your heart. God Bless you… Tedd!
