The Alabama Veterans Museum held a non-partisan political forum
Saturday May 22nd. Museum president Jerry Crabtree welcomed the
crowd to sit and hear the platforms from the candidates from the
commissioners office to the governor.
Jerry Barksdale was the time keeper allowing
each candidate no longer than 5 minutes to speak. The first
candidate to speak was current county commissioner David
Seibert, running for re-election. The guest of honor is always
at every activity or event at the museum the "CSX Train" decided
to come barreling thru just as Mr. Seibert began!
