    Not sure if I’m more excited that Ed finally won a council seat, or that the ex-Mayors son did not win. Either way it’s exciting.

      Yeah….ha ha the ex mayors son is OUT. !

      18% voter turn out. Honestly, I expected the turn out to be a lot higher in this area because of all the complaints I heard about politics when I worked retail. Oh well. At least one of the people I voted for got in. Maybe we’ll see some real progress now that another one of the good ole’ boys is gone.

      • Rainbow Dash November 4, 2015 at 5:56 pm

        Really wish I could say the same for Hildale.

    So much for the ex mayor and his comment…” I own this town ” he was nothing but a self imposed dictator !
