City Council At Large...Election 2015

There will be a pretty crowded field for the Jeffersonville City council at large positions in Tuesday's primary. Five Rep.s and five Dem.s will face off for the three open seats with the winners(top 3) facing off in the fall. Name recognition is huge in what will probably be a minuscule turnout for a primary with very few contested races. On the GOP side incumbent Matt Owen on name alone will probably win. Owen needs to be replaced he has been a major disappointment, he authored the ordinance that eliminated Jeff City court ...a very stupid move and seems to be a lapdog for GOP chair Jamey Noel.

  The BatBlog feels Steve Webb and Tony Wadsworth will grab the other two GOP seats. On the Democratic side we predict Nathan Samuel, Rodriquez and Ron Ellis will win the Dem slots. Two other contested races are the 4th Dist where Ray Wilkey faces Albert Frazier for the  Dem, slot...we have met Wilkey and he's a fine young man but the race is hard to call because of the unknown factor of the 2 candidates....

Finally in the 6th Dist. Dawn Elston should win easily over Teresa Hicks on the Dem.side. Also the BatBlog hopes people give Russell Brooksbank a good look in his Libertarian bid for a spot on the Clarksville Town Council he faces a tough race against John Gilkey but we need more blue collar working people like Russell in government. I don't think the people of Clarksville could go wrong by voting for Russell Brooksbank,,,,


TOMORROW ....Election Eve Special we will look at all the races again and final predictions and a look at the Fall election....

    Mr. "Elect me so I can shut government down"?

    No thank you. I vote for officials who are for progress, not for obstruction of it.

      That is correct! The Tea party would love to shut down government, until they get elected. Then they wake up, and go shit, I was wrong about this whole negative view about how bad these elected officials are.

    Do tell who Rodriguez really is. If he wins today, we need to know for November.

    Could anybody please show me where I said I wanted to get rid of government? I believe that government has a role, and that role is to secure our rights. Certainly, I would want to shut down anything that the government is doing that is violating our rights. Wouldn't you?
