Tal Sidique will actually address issues in District 3 and will give the citizens a voice again, something we have been lacking since 2016. Culbreath did show up which is more than you can say for KVO and Satcher, but she is being sued by a Republican Executive Committee member and her record at the sheriff’s department speaks for itself with numerous letters of reprimand and hours suspended without pay. Farrington wants fair elections! No fair election with Satcher at the helm wasting 100K taxpayer money on unnecessary voter ID cards and not processing mail in ballots. Kruse has been the only Commissioner to interact with and on behalf of the public for the past 2 years.
