Jackson Jambalaya

Ol' blood and guts Virgi dropped the hammer. She is tough as jello.

Virgi sealed her legacy.

Bless his heart

Virgi sucks. Won't miss her. That's like saying you can't wear a shirt to the church or library or school that's a polling place. It's only a polling place if it's open to vote.

Watch what?

Easy. Turn shirt inside out.

Isn't it just like a politician to be a tiger on house rules, but a kitten when it comes to having backbone for the people.

Of all the raging infernos in Jackson, this is what we are focused on? Where was the Mayor? Is he still being paid?

I would be hard pressed to tell a candidate that they couldn’t wear a campaign shirt or button at election central once the polls had closed. I believe Virgie was wrong on this one as clerk’s office was closed for the day. But maybe it’s what she had to do to make herself feel relevant these days. Way to assert your authority. Just makes you seem sad and pathetic.

Mr Servis should have known Virgi was expecting the ship to be run with all hartches battened down.

After all, wasn't VIrgi the one that was railing on Mayor Lumumba about his missing and sorry campaign finance filings?

Wasn't Virgi really incensed about the mayor's 'friends and family hiring" plans?

That was Virgi wasn't it?

"Funny of the Day" indeed.
Ver-gee is too comical.

She has the whiniest voice. You would have thought he was brandishing a firearm.

The COJ is a complete joke and the laughing stock of the entire state. I will say this, this young man is the only mayoral candidate that has laid out a clear cut plan for the COJ. He might be the only hope that Jackson has left. He is a big threat to the corruption that is going on in Jackson. The citizens need to vote for him.

Jackson = Clown World

He’s a Satan worshipping vampire

Virgi: Tough on t-shirts, easy on Lumumba's graft.

6:53 exactly

Virgi, get a friggin' life, you loser.

Virgie needs to double up on her meds

All politicians suck a*s.

What a joke but a council member with a DUI and arrested for bribery and a mayor also arrested 🙄🙄🙄

First off, the state statute that allows offices for councilmembers requires a population of 200,000. So, it is a misallocation of funds for any of them to have an office. Why wasn't the city attorney asked about this dispute?

I see grounds for a civil suit.

That shirt was protected free speech, especially if the voting aspect was closed for the day. Doesn't the city have an attorney in the room to keep the council from stepping over the line?

@9:25 it's 100,000 https://law.justia.com/codes/mississippi/title-21/chapter-8/section-21-8-7/

Zach Servis is a child with absolutely no experience. He should leave town before the clown makeup becomes permanent.

This is lame sh@% old. There’s already a new mayor. Focusing on dominant behaviour by role playing bureaucrats is laudable, but this is OLD sh@%, like complaining about biden. Look forward at the new administration’s potential pitfalls, just let it go.

The information shared here is actually a misunderstanding of the law. According to the Mississippi Code and Constitution, the population requirement doesn’t allow or prohibit cities from providing offices for councilmembers based on size. Instead, it requires that councils have fixed offices once the population reaches a certain threshold.

Additionally, under Home Rule authority, cities like Jackson have the power to designate offices for their elected officials regardless of population. So this isn’t a misallocation of funds based on population but rather a normal part of local governance.

If there’s any dispute about this, the city attorney would clarify how local rules apply—but the state law itself does not prevent councilmembers from having offices.
