  1. I’m assuming Donna Nyack and seat 2 means City Commission Seat 2, which is held by Jacqueline Porter. If so, this is definitely designed to split the votes opposing Porter.

  2. And, yet another raw sewage spill occurred Thursday of over 230,000 gallons! Tallahassee Regional Environmental Group details on FB

  3. Shenanigans in the election process?… say it ain’t so, Joe.

    There isn’t a Republican or Conservative holding ANY elected office in the City or the County… so…

  4. You should also think about building a “hub” for storing and moving supplies during emergencies in the Tallahassee area.

  5. If Donna Nyack worries you that much, and I can see your issues, then have a Reporter sit at the Supervisors of Elections Office 8am to 5pm from June 10th to June 14th to catch up with her when she goes in to Qualify for the Election.
