If you get elected to County Commission, what power does that give your spouse?

The thread title probably explains a lot, but I am hearing that we may very well have gotten a two for one deal in a recent election.

It is OK to give names and details.

Already had to see the Sheriff once about this.

I bet most spouses have some say so in their spouses business, so is this something more unusual which you mention?

Send them an email and ask. They operate as a group, not as a single individual. I have not asked.

It would be helpful to have specifics. And what does the Sheriff have to do with a commisioner's spouse?

Yeah, I thought I kept up with BCC happenings pretty well but I guess not. What are you talking about? I do know that one editor of the Beach Breeze whom I considered the best editorial writer in the Panhandle recently lost his job with no warning. Whether it had anything to do with his spouse being a Commissionser, I don't know and I won't speculate. I just know the Beach Breeze publisher did a stupid thing, IMO. I am cancelling my subscription though I am sure it will not be missed.

I know what you mean, the only reason I bought that paper was to read the commentary. He was always on target for the conservative point of view. The tone after his departure is definitely more to the left.
