Clark Co. Commissioner Race...A Clear Choice...

Has earned reelection...
Clark Co. Republicans have a clear and easy choice in the upcoming primary election. Rick Stephenson has shown complete transparency and willingness to work for all residents of the county during his first term. He openly will answer or find answers to anyone needing help with problems personally from his phone or over the internet,something unheard of in the past of someone in his position.

 We have heard the rumors about his possible disfavor with party leaders. If true So What !!! Rick will tell you personally he works for us , the voters and taxpayers not the GOP party. Rick's popularity with Clark Co. residents far exceed  the popularity of the so called party leadership anyway.
More obstruction ?

In the wrong race
 Rick's opponents in May's primary are former Jeff City councilman Connie Sellers and local attorney Kyle Williams. Sellers is way out of her league in this race, her tenure on the Jeff city council was highlighted by her and several others obstruction of mayor Mike Moore's projects and ideas. The last thing the County government needs is the obstruction Sellers brings to the table.


Williams who gave judge Joe Weber a pretty good race in the Circuit Court race last year may have a  good future in politics, but this is Rick Stephenson's position , he has earned the trust and showed the work ethic and transparency that is refreshing change of former Commissioners..

 We do find it peculiar that the GOP would put not one but two candidates (possibly to split the vote) up against a popular commissioner like Rick has been. Whether its party squabbles or what ...Rick Stephenson has earned reelection and will win in May and November and he gets a two thumbs up endorsement from the BatBlog....

  1. Rick has been good for the county as well as the other two commissioners. We are in good hands leadership wise.

  2. Not related to this story, Jeffersonville circuit breaker 4.5 million. Ouch!

  3. Every penny of assessed value inside a TIF district is going to compound that circuit breaker problem even more. Expect it to get worse until the legislature finally caps Clark County's abuse of TIF.

    Soon, they'll sound like Melin begging for more money from the taxpayers as they spend on wants vs needs (and giving away abatements like candy as well)

  5. The way I understand it by the time TIF's really catch up with us the politicians that implemented them will be long gone into retirement homes...

  7. Noticed there was a letter to the editor urging people to vote for Connie Sellers ---- doubt it helps her much though because the letter was signed by Moe!
