Editor: I’m super supporting Jennifer Esposito for District 4 Board of Supervisors, smart America First Republican, she will fight for We The People, I have watched and heard her defend what is true. She was my passenger with me to The 2024 Arizona State Delegate Convention, I was blessed to receive much needed knowledge how things ran that day. I did not find her to be deceitful, but just the opposite. I also met her husband Jeff a good man, I spent around five hours at their mini farm in Golden Valley. While I welded panels on the coral, I got to meet a pony, two horses, a donkey and about a dozen very healthy happy pigs. The area were these little friends lived was very clean. Truly Jennifer is the best choice for District 4.

Let’s cut through the noise and get to the heart of the matter. Robert J. Mawhinney Jr. is right in some respect: this election has been a spectacle of mudslinging and personal vendettas. But let’s be clear about what’s really happening here.

When Frank Puglia and Marianne Salem, among others, throw baseless accusations and engage in hateful rhetoric, it’s not just an attack on me—it’s a calculated distraction from the issues that actually matter to the people of District 4. They’re hoping you’ll be so caught up in their drama that you’ll forget what this election is really about - our community’s future.

Editor: This has been one of the ugliest local elections I have ever seen. It started out with District 1 Supervisor Travis Lingenfelter calling District 4 Supervisor candidate Jennifer Esposito childish names online such as “rabid dog” and spreading a despicable false rumor about his opponent Shawn Meisner, the former head grounds keeper at the Fairgrounds.

Then it devolved into a “cat fight” between Supervisor Bishop and her former administrative assistant, District 4 candidate Marianne Salem, after Bishop came unglued on constituent and school board candidate Danielle Keck. No arrests were made, but Bishop hired a paralegal to send a threatening letter to Salem at work recently, where she’s still a County employee working for Lingenfelter.

Meanwhile, Salem’s husband Frank Puglia has been busy gay bashing candidate Logan Marsh. When Bishop convinced him to run Marsh should have entered the race realistically expecting that might happen, considering the high percentage of Christians in District 4. Your life is an open book as a candidate.

Bikers Corner: In the world of motorcycling, there is a strong sense of camaraderie and brotherhood among riders. It is not just about the thrill of the ride, but also about the community and support that riders offer each other.

The attempted assassination of a presidential candidate has me pondering this question:

Nature Notes: "When you’re the resident 'wildlife expert,' the people close to you often come to you for advice or help regarding anything wild and unknown.
