Beth Coger’s drive to save the rule of law in Washington County Our Quorum Court is problematic in so many ways. Right now we can only roll our eyes at it. But that’s just not enough. The Q Court and parts of Washington County government have real authority over our lives, and they’re not doing a good job of exercising it. Their bungling and manipulation of money were disastrous during covid. The same dynamic is still playing out in other ways. The county attorney, Brian Lester, has demonstrated a lot of incompetence over the years with no accountability. That may […]

He has a platform that touches strongly on things we’ve identified as important to us. He’s not well known though, so he’s going to need every vote he can get. The other candidate is unknown to me.
