David: Read your comments about the candidate's signs and noticed you mention 16 candidates. The Gwinnett Co. elections office sent me a list of 20 candidates running for one of the 6 council seats.

Thanks, Judy. I appreciate your giving the candidates a chance for an introduction to the voters. Mr. Cobb's response was a surprise. We'll see if he's serious enough in continuing his candidacy to respond. If not, at least we have an apparently qualified candidate who has the time in Mr. Stickney.

Excellent point David. It certainly did not give a good impression. Everyone else had the "time" to provide the information.I wonder if he will reconsider and send in the missing information.
