Not much has changed since our last update. Dorsey Carson is moving fast as one would expect someone who has run for office before to do. Amile Wilson is making the rounds and announced his candidacy as well. Charles Barbour has been making phone calls. A Richard Sellers is expressing interest as well. There is no date for the special election until the current councilman formally vacates the position. Others are looking into running but nothing concrete to report.

Trollfest '09
Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.
Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).
Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.
Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".
In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.
In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.
Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.
Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!
This is definitely a Beaver production.

Trollfest '07
Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.
There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.

This race i woul dbet has something to do with cockran and his people doing bad to the regular people. Theres no on this site to give the citisens what god wants and we know he wants mcdaniel in there. all yo uwill have to anser to a higher power and chris will win in the end there. Come one theres a clear picture that this site is doing devils work.
Amile? Do we really need another artsy-fartsy on the council?
Arts? Trial Lawyer. No, lets take a Mensa Member like 12:51 above. Would fit in well with LaRita.
If that goofy ass Charles Barbour gets elected, I will slit my wrists.
Charles Barbour hates Jackson. Why would he run?
Dorsey Carson is a Democrat. As in: Barack Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Bennie Thompson. No thank you. People like this are killing our country.
Amile Wilson is a Republican. Enough for me.
Amile Wilson is a neophyte. Neophyte Republicans are killing our country. Not good enough for me.
6:17
It is a nonpartisan race, so Dorsey's party affiliation is irrelevant. Dorsey is the smartest of this litter by far, so he has my vote. Will get things done like a new middle school that is much needed in NE Jackson at old Colonial club. Very bright and energetic.
Isn't Amile just the VIP photographer? No law degree or business degree; not qualified.
Saying Amile is "just the VIP photographer" is like saying Dorsey is "just a theater owner" because he owns part of the Capri.
Amile worked on the media team for Yarber and a lot of other candidates. Plus he owns his own magazine I'm pretty sure the VIP photography is just a side gig.
That analogy is ridiculous. We're supposed to be impressed because someone has worked on the media team for political candidates? What a laughable premise.
"Plus he owns his own magazine"
One absolutely riddled with typos and grammatical errors. A feature story on a new restaurant in Madison gave no address, website, phone number or any other identifying information on the restaurant itself. Just a long story on the type of food they serve and the owners.
For all the complaints about the McD campaign and their lack of grasp of the English language, they have nothing on Wilson's magazine.
I don't have a dog in this hunt any more than anyone else living outside the city who wants to see Jackson do well. As far as what one city council member can do, I'm not sure how the vote from Ward 1 counts more than the votes from the other six, so don't get too excited about any one candidate making that much of a difference unless he can become the tiebreaker, which in this case he won't.
6:17 above is right - it's a non partisan race, and no one on the council serves as a Democrat or a Republican. However, the voters should be thinking about what's next for the two young men who have announced as candidates. Which is more likely to be satisfied staying on the city council for the rest of his political career? Probably neither - both are too young and too sharp to not want to do something at a higher level, and election as city councilman will be the first step up the ladder. Given that, party affiliation is important. Dorsey is a Democrat, no matter how much he might try to tamp that fact down, and will be a Democrat if he's elected to the legislature, Congress, a district office or a statewide position. Amile is a Republican. Both will do good jobs as city councilmen. Which one do you want to put on the first rung of that ladder? If I had a vote it would be for Amile Wilson. Bill Billingsley
Tea Party Bill. Run from any advice he has.
Bill, you provided one of the two affidavits McDaniel is using to call for ALL Hinds County votes to be thrown OUT, Republican votes! Are you telling us Wilson is a McDanielite too?
Got news for you Bill. NEJackson is going Democrat.
No wonder people don't run for public office. Two guys who have contributed to the community, worked their asses to try to help Jackson, and all you dumb@$$ trolls want to do is trash them.
YAWN Snnoooorrreeee ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz
The nerd returns.
"heres no on this site to give the citisens what god wants and we know he wants mcdaniel in there."
Funny, God told me just the opposite. Now shove off. Get your hearing tested too.
