A year or so ago I did a blog on What Special Interest are and are not.
CLICK HERE
Special interests are not individual people as Wes is suggesting. Some of the tenants at the Casino contributed to Commissioner Suzanne Mulvehill's campaign. Why not? She is the one who has always advocated "for" the casino. These tenants will have a chance to lease there like any other prospective tenant. Should these tenants have contributed to her opponent's campaign, someone totally confused about our budget and the casino or should they contribute to a candidate that has their interests in mind? Isn't that why you vote for someone?
Her opponent accepted contributions from Sun Recycling Company, a company that dumped all sorts of junk on our 65 acre landfill causing health problems to the surrounding residents but I guess that's ok.
Is Wes suggesting that a candidate not receive contributions from friends? Should we now be worried why Mary Ann Webber gave to Carla Blockson? Or Shanon Materio? Or, or, or.......................?
