Jeremy Matlow opposed the 2020 CSC property tax increase.

Scott Maddox Democrat David Bellamy and pro-Doak $ Dianne Williams-Cox both supported the Leon County tax hike proposed by FPL Chambercrat John Dailey.

This is pretty simple.

@ William,

Would it be possible to make a point without name calling and hate speech, but with a plan, integrity, and direction? You cancel out your own comment and have zero Integrity in the bank.

You are failing to give credit to Matlow for the responsible actions that he took along the conservative lines. The CSC slush fund, $27 million Stadium giveaway, transparency and physical responsibility are credits for Matlow. Give credit where credit is due.

Me thinks TR hit a liberal ‘funny bone ‘ , as a few lefty wing nuts are going to great lengths to attempt to convince others that Matlow and companies ‘dark money ‘ is pure and innocent vs anyone who contributes to an alternative viewpoint is clearly not a good communist and must be cancelled- immediately .

Yes Comrade Vladimir ?Matlow ?….??

And still… no whining about the FAMU and TCC handouts, only the FSU handout… hmmmmmm. Can you say, “race-based pandering” and “selective outrage”?

And still… no candidate offering any solutions to the handout problem, only that they want to be the one who gets to handout our money… hmmmm. Can you say, SSDD (Same S—t Different Democrat)?

I’ll take the Democrat in the center square to block the Marxists, Peter…

All the rhetoric, name calling and fear mongering only boils down to one major factor influencing my vote. I will vote for those who listen to and vote according to the wishes of their many and varied constituents. That’s Matlow, who has a proven track record of listening to taxpayers, and hopefully Marcelin or Green.
I will not vote for those who turn deaf ears to the taxpayers and vote according to the developers, chamber of commerce (COC), and FSU boosters who own them. Bellamy has admitted he has made donations in the past based on what the Florida Medical Association told him to do. His history makes me believe that as a commissioner he will vote the way his big donors, developers/COC/Boosters, tell him to.

And no, I am not Max Herrle in disguise. But I may be old enough to be his mother…don’t know cuz I never met him or his mother.

@ Barb,

The Tallahassee Democrat has provided good campaign information from the candidates. It has been fair and balanced. If anything they have held back a bit.

Also, hard-working businesses buy ads and I like to support local businesses. I have made many high ticket purchases from these businesses simply because I saw their ad.

I would suggest using it as a tool to become more informed regarding this election cycle.
