8:16 PM RSN Suggestions For Dothan Mayor – Commission and School Board Chair and Members

DOTHAN:        7:55 PM.    JESUS, PLEASE TAKE THE WHEEL !!!

Election day is Tuesday, August 5. The pools open at 7:00 AM and close at 7:00 PM. If there has ever been a time when EVERY registered voter needs to cast their vote, this is the time.

As RSN wrote yesterday, Dothan Mayor and Associate Commissioners have no control over the Dothan City Schools. They provide some funding and services but the Dothan City Commission and Mayor are a totally different entity then the Dothan School Board.

RSN SUGGESTIONS FOR DOTHAN MAYOR AND ASSOCIATE COMMISSIONERS

MAYOR – Mark Saliba

D1 ASSOCIATE COMMISSIONER – Kevin Dorsey

D2 ASSOCIATE COMMISSIONER – Phillip Kirksey

D3 ASSOCIATE COMMISSIONER – Bradley Bedwell

D4 ASSOCIATE COMMISSIONER – Josh Chapman or Dave Stock. They both seem to be good men. I have provided you with their last message before the election in another article. Each has their points but both have hearts of service.

RSN SUGGESTIONS FOR DOTHAN SCHOOL BOARD CHAIRMAN AND SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS

BRENDA GUILFORD AND FRANKLIN JONES – time to vote out of office!!!

First let me say, Incumbent School Board Members Brenda Guilford and Franklin Jones need to be voted out. They have chosen three Dothan Superintendent’s of which you the voters were forced to spend over 100,000.00 to buy out their contracts. It is time for these two board members to be removed.

MIKE SCHIMTZ AND SCOTT CHILDERS

Two men that I respect have made recommendations and I am going to give their recommendations. Those two men are Dothan Businessman Mike Schmitz and Dothan Businessman and current School Board Chairman Scott Childers.

MIKE SCHMITZ ENDORSEMENTS:      Mike Schmitz said LEADERSHIP!!! Mike Schmitz makes the following endorsements in the Tuesday, Augustan election. For Dothan Mayor Mark Saliba needs to be re-elected. And Mr. Schmitz recommends Wes Grant for Chairman of Dothan School Board.

SCOTT CHILDERS ENDORSEMENTS:     Chairman Scott Childers ask to trust his recommendations and hold him responsible: Childers believes the below named candidates will put students first in their decisions which will keep great teachers in Dothan City Schools.
