Jackson Jambalaya

Notice Airwaves donated to Lee. Pretty much sums up his campaign.

Question: If one does not follow the rules and provide the information, are they still allowed to advance and appear on the ballot?

Note that Quinn's largest expenditure is to Maverick Development Company in the sum of $12,000. Maverick is an administratively dissolved Mississippi limited liability company whose sole member and manager is her husband, also her largest contributor, reported at $25,000.

Some brave soul in the legislature needs to pass a law making it a crime for the county circuit clerks to put someone on the ballot who is not current with his campaign finance reports by the time the ballot has to be finalized. Of course, this would go over like a flood in a Fizzie factory in a group of people who aren't too keen on filing their campaign finance reports anyway, but it would give the opponents of the no voters something to use against them.

There are fines if you don't file according to the required schedule....$50 per day.

If I remember correctly, Lumumba defended a murdering rapist Elliott Culp in Durant a decade or so ago and was fined by the judge but refused to pay the fine. So, he got himself 'cited'. Big deal.

Was that the one where he got a contempt citation for claiming that he had "paid for justice" before and that he'd do it again, after which he walked up and slapped some cash down on the bench? Definitely mayoral material, I'd say.

Sumbitch belongs bent over a prison laundry-room bench.

10:19 you are wrong. Lee is the only candidate that has any chance of getting the city out of the ditch. Anyone with a dollar in his pocket should be giving part of it to his campaign.

As long as Lee is associated with Ben Allen he is the toxic candidate.

And what's wrong with Ben Allen. He could've abandoned Jackson and moved to Madison long ago like so may others have. Why put up with the hassle?

Lee is not associated with Ben Allen but you seem to be associated with stupid.

Lee doesn't have the necessary experience, he's just easy to manipulate.

I wish the city was more white so Ben could be elected Mayor. He is committed to the city. I am on several committees with him. You must have some petty axe to grind 9:22 or spell it out. What is your specific issue. Man up and tell?

Holy Hemp! Looks like someone above was smoking some good weed last night. JLee is attached to RINO Ben at the hip. You can pretend otherwise but most peeps know that JLee is the downtowners' candidate.

Lee should be every Jacksonian's candidate. At a minimum, he should be every Jacksonian taxpayer's candidate. This really is it for the city. It can't handle four more years of deeper descent into the cesspool.

Ben was on the city council and did nothing but argue and crack bad jokes. What makes you think he'd be an effective mayor?

Yeah he was so caustic and argumentative his 6 Democrat colleagues, 5 of whom were black, elected him, a Republican, as President. Axe, meet grind.

President of the city council is a rotational thang and, if nothing else, a meaningless gift blacks sometimes give whites to make them feel welcome while they strap them into an electric chair. I know it pumped you up though, Ben.

...make them feel welcome while they strap them into an electric chair....

Did they bring back Old Sparky and I missed it?
