To my knowledge, only one candidate for the board of county
commissioners has pledged to Rule of Law: Democrat Patty Sward.
Rule of Law requires civility. Elbert County Republicans may
refuse public debate when one of their opponents has a vociferous
reputation. Republican and Democratic leadership established law
enforcement procedures to ensure immediate removal of any
participant after appropriate warning.
I implore all commissioner candidates to respect Rule of Law and
the moderators’ record of proper decorum. Elbert County voters
deserve to meet the candidates in public forum.
