Mr. Deason's Answers
Why should I vote for you
over other candidates for city council? I love this city and the people of this
city and I love helping people. I am no
stranger to Scottsboro or Scottsboro city government. I am dedicated to being "the people's
voice" - listening to their ideas and concerns and then taking
action. The wonderful people of this
city already know me and I feel they know they can absolutely count on my
dependability.
What do you offer the
citizens of Scottsboro, Alabama that other candidates do not offer ? 1. I have
many years of experience in working with budgets of tens of millions of
dollars. 2. I feel the years that I have spent in city hall as Safety Director
and Mayor uniquely qualify me as having more experience, knowledge, and
leadership in and of city government than any other candidate. 3. I
have friends across the state of Alabama in municipal government - plus friends
in Montgomery to use as a source of knowledge and expertise - when
necessary. 4. I have over 40 years of experience in
"management" - in retail, life and health insurance, mortgage
financing, manufacturing, the military (U. S. Air Force), and in
government. 5. I have been designated as
an Advanced Certified Municipal Official by the Alabama League of
Municipalities.

Mr. Saint's answers
The impacts of this upcoming national elections are felt on
a local level, regardless of political party or chosen candidate, if for no
other reason than it is becoming increasingly clear that American voters are
tired of politicians who climb the political ranks and lose touch with the real
issues on their way up. I am no career politician, and I am not looking for
this office to be my start to climbing the ranks. As a born and raised
Scottsboro citizen, I have been in this community through many highs, lows and
everything in between. Throughout my life, I have not just invested in
Scottsboro actively participating in its workforce on many levels and
supporting its businesses, but I have also made the greatest investment of all
by raising my children here in Scottsboro schools and now my grandchildren
here.
While I do not believe a class or program can completely
prepare someone to hold an elected office exists, I do believe the experience
necessary to be a true representative of a community comes from not just
reading about a city, but by knowing the community and what makes it unique and
using that knowledge to recognize what goals can be made to keep making that
community great.
If elected, you can count on me to work diligently with the
other council members to consider the needs of the public, the issues at hand
and act on both in a way that ensures Scottsboro will give its citizens the
opportunity to grow the economy and create a stronger community to raise our
families in. We can all agree that when families are strong, Scottsboro is
strong.
