Debate was a success
The Linton Mayoral Debate is the talk of the area, and that's fantastic.
Over 200 people showed up at Linton-Stockton High School on Tuesday night to listen to Mayor Tom Jones and City Councilman Kelly Foglesong offer their views and plans for Linton. That proves to me that people care.
People care about Linton's future, and they care about who their next leader will be.
There were a lot of people from outside the city limits who showed up, and some from miles away from other parts of Greene County. That was fantastic! Some in this county want to keep everyone apart, but Tuesday night proved that those from all parts of the county care about what happens to each other.
My only disappointment was that too many statements were made without any facts to support the claims. But that's for the voters to decide come election day.
I pat both candidates on the back. They didn't hesitate to accept the challenge of the debate, and though there were some concerns as it neared, they didn't back down. They stepped up to the plate with the game on the line to connect with the voters.
Thanks to everyone who showed up, and a big thanks to those who asked questions.
Linton is alive and well, and people really do care about the future.
