Another Blogger-turned-Candidate
David Oatney, a Knoxville blogger, has registered as a write-in candidate for the County Commission here in Knox County. Given the chaos that is surrounding the local elections this year, there is sure to be a record number of write-in candidacies. David, after much prayer and consultation with his family, has decided that he would give it a go in the 2nd district, which, alas, means that I will not have the pleasure of voting for him. (I am currently in the 9th district of Knox County, which is another district that is in a state of flux due to a term-limited incumbent.)
Congratulations to David and all of the other conservatives who are giving of themselves in the name of public service this election cycle!
