Dear editor,
To the voters of Dodge County: Are you registered to vote? This election is extremely important, more so than any others in the past. In the 2012 election there were 90 million Christians registered to vote. Twenty-five million Christians didn’t vote. Obama won.
There are 15 to 20 million Christians not registered to vote. We have 70 thousand elections across the United States, from school boards to cities and states. If you say, “I don’t like this person” or “My vote won’t count”, your vote does count. How can we defeat evil unless we make our voices heard? Our vote allows our voices to be heard.
When you don’t vote, you are helping the other side. Our votes as Christians should support life, liberty and support of Israel. Make your vote count. Go out and vote. Early voting is happening now. Visit myfaithvotes.org to learn more.
P.S. We voted today. Have you?
In Christ,
Judy Allen

1% Joe
Jiggy Smaha, Rest In Peace.
Donald Trump on Joe Biden: “We call him 1% Joe.” Good name! We could also call him former vice plagiarist of the USA. One percent was Joe’s share of the vote in the 2008 primaries. He ran in 1988 until his plagiarism caught up with him and 20 years later he gave it another shot, losing to Obama in the 2008 Demoleft primaries. In the 2008 run Biden told an interviewer that Obama was not qualified to be president. I agree with Joe on that. All was forgiven when Barack and Joe teamed up to beat the inept John McCain in November. Be careful how you vote or you could be stuck with a big loser like Biden for years to come. He first entered the D.C. swamp in 1973, over 25 years back and liked it. He wants to go back.
Joe Biden called Trump supporters “the dregs of society.” He must be trying to hurt our feelings.
“Democrats produce mobs, Republicans produce jobs.”
Donald Trump
Now the leftist speech police claim the word “mob” is a racist dog whistle. Writer Jesse Kelly calls it “the let-wing rage mob.”
Liberal columnist Jennifer Rubin is hyped as a conservative by the Washington P- - - newsrag. The P- - - laughably claims Ms. Rubin is a balance to their liberal lineup.
A new legal concept at work – Judge Brett Kavanaugh has to prove his innocence but his guilt doesn’t have to be established. It is a given if his accusers charge it.
“The fact that somebody can study for a degree in ‘Gender Studies‘ is striking proof that Cultural Marxists are holding Western universities by the throat.”

Andrew Gillum, Tallahassee, Florida mayor and Demo socialist running for governor of Florida, says he appreciates George Soros and Tom Steyer, billionaire left-wingers, who helped him win the Democrat nomination. He also claims his campaign was driven by small donations from “everyday folks.” Soros and Steyer are committed socialists.
Who was the big loser in the Florida Democrat Primary for governor? Phillip Levine, former Miami Beach mayor, spent $29 million from his own pocket and finished third behind Gillum and runner-up Gwen Graham, daughter of Bob Graham, former Senator and governor. [Full Story »]

Lady Indians victorious, looking to make another trip to the show
It took a while, but it was worth the wait for the Dodge High Lady Indians Softball Team. The Lady Indians finally hosted the Bacon County Red Raiders on Friday. Dodge scored four runs in the first inning of game one.
The strong pitching of Jade Dowdy held that up and Dodge rolled to an 8-10 win. [Full Story »]

Dodge County High Indians down the Hawks 20-6
The Dodge County Indians got back to action Monday night at John Marshall Peacock Field.
The game, originally scheduled for Friday night, was moved to Monday due to the power outages left behind by the wake of Hurricane Michael. Please keep all the people affected by the storm in your prayers.
The Indians, coming off a tough loss to Dublin last week, needed a win against Washington County to keep our hopes alive for a top two finish in the region. [Full Story »]

Russ’s Sports Review
It was another week with more injuries and a bad defense. Somehow, the Falcons pulled off a 34-29 win over Tampa Bay. The injuries did continue as wide outs Sanu and Ridley did go down in the first half without returning.
The last injury was unlikely even for the Falcons. Star kicker Matt Bryant injured his right hamstring as he kicked a very important 58 yard field goal during the game’s final minute. [Full Story »]

Letter to the editor
Dear editor,
I’m seeking the descendants of Sam Davis. He was the driver for President Jefferson Davis before, during and after the civil war. When President Davis was fleeing Richmond in 1865, he came through Laurens, Pulaski (now Dodge) and Wilcox County. He was captured in Irwin County. His driver was Sam Davis who was one of President Davis’ slaves.
Sam Davis returned to Laurens County after the war and married a young woman he met while driving. They married and raised a family. Somewhere around twenty years later, they moved to Dodge County. There is a photo of him standing by a marker that showed where President Davis camped while in Pulaski (now Dodge) in the first history of Dodge County.

Plummeting civility
Rest in Peace pro football legends Tommy McDonald and Jim Taylor.
Regarding Judge Brett Kavanaugh, now Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh (great!) – notice how many liberals fell for the scam. This lady knows better and sums it up well:
“No one who has known him since he since he became an adult has accused him of improprieties, and no one except Senate Democrats has accused him of being an alcoholic.”
Jo Anne Skousen on LibertyUnbound.com 10-3-18
“Plummeting civility,” Laura Ingraham calls it.
All 25 judges on the Trump Supreme Court list were rock-solid conservatives. No wonder President Trump is vehemently hated by the leftstream press. Neither Clinton nor B.H. Obama would ever appoint a conservative to anything.
Who’s next up for Supreme Court consideration? Many say Amy Barrett, nominated to federal courts by Donald Trump. She is a member of the Federalist Society, taught at Notre Dame Law School and is only age 45. You’ll notice frequent mention that these are lifetime appointments by opponents when a conservative is in the White House, but it is seldom mentioned by the press when it is a liberal president making the appointments.
As savvy conservative commentator-rocker Kid Rock, a big Trump supporter says, “Let the business guy run the country like a business.”
“If fascism ever comes to America, it will come under liberalism.”
Ronald Reagan
WorldNetDaily.com says “Anchor Babies” cost taxpayers $2.4 billion annually. That’s $2,400,000,000, big bucks. You could spend $1,000 per day every day for 2,000 years and you’d still be well short of $1 billion spent. You’d have spent “only” $730 million, or $730,000,000, 73% of a billion dollars.
What liberals accuse you of doing, they’re already doing themselves.

Barron hired as county manager
By Becky Holland
Spence Barron, age 43, was named as the new county manager for Dodge County Monday night at the Dodge County Board of Commissioners’ regular monthly meeting.
A two-member search committee, consisting of commissioners W.T. “Junior” Howell and Brian Watkins, reviewed through a list of applicants for the position and presented Barron’s name as the top candidate to the board during the closed session of Monday night’s meeting. After coming out of the closed session, the commissioners voted on Barron’s selection.
For the past seven years Bobby Peacock, a former Dodge County commissioner and commission chairman, has served as interim county manager. Earlier in September, Peacock presented his resignation to some of the board members, but not as an agenda item for an official board meeting.
Immediately, the board opened the position up. Approximately seven applications were turned in.
Watkins told The Dodge County News on Tuesday during a phone interview that “of all the people that turned in resumes, Mr. Barron was the most qualified. I have known him for a long time and I believe he has the demeanor and character just right for this role.”
Barron currently serves as the chief financial officer for the Dodge County-Eastman Development Authority (DCEDA), and most recently prior to that role was the strategic planner for the DCEDA. In 2015, he retired after 18 years of creditable service with the state of Georgia as a special agent with the Georgia Bureau of Investigations (GBI).
He received his bachelor of arts in criminal justice in 1997 from the University of Georgia, his master of public health from Mercer University and is pursuing his doctorate in public health from Georgia Southern University.
Barron also graduated from the GBI Basic Agent Candidate Course from the Georgia Public Safety Training Center in 2002 and was appointed as a special agent in June of that year. He also graduated from the National Forensics Academy in 2010 from the Law Enforcement Innovations Center.
