Is it possible that we could look beyond party affiliation and truly elect someone who will not play both sides of the fence? One who will take a stand even when it is not popular to do so?

Kevin Madden won me over when at a meeting I attended he was being encouraged to run as a Republican because that would better his chances to win the district House seat.

When Kevin said “No” to that idea, because he had run as a Democrat in the past and did not want to play a game with the community he would be representing, I knew this man would do the same behind the Capitol doors (he would strive to do the right thing) so I signed up to help him win the seat.

As many of you know, I have been working with elected officials for quite sometime now to encourage them to do the right thing for our community. I could care less what party they are affiliated with – if it were truly up to me – I would say we should all be independents but that is a whole other Georgia story within itself.

So the best we can do is run the race within the two-party system we are given. There are so many wonderful people in Fayette County, we deserve to be represented by one with integrity – Kevin Madden.
