Democrat Lucy Baxley seeking another term as the State Public Service Commission President


Major newspapers in the State of Alabama have written off Democrats because of the recent takeover of majority of public elected offices in Alabama by Republicans. However, that’s no surprise the same major newspapers outlets been supporting Republicans all along.

PSC President Lucy Baxley
Lucy Baxley is a wonderful candidate and public servant, serving currently as the President of the Public Service Commission in Montgomery. The former Lt. Governor is working on behalf of the citizens of this state. Just image if a all republican panel take over the Public Service Commission and they favor all the big utility companies, what burden they would put on the backs of the poor and working class in Alabama.

Lucy Baxley is working to keep lower utility rates and tough regulations to protect the citizens of this state. Republicans are seeking to do away with regulations that protect the citizens. They will also vote in favor of big utility companies to raise rates on the citizens of this state.

Baxley recently told a reporter in an interview "I'm not the last Democrat," said the 74-year-old president of the Alabama Public Service Commission. "But I know I'm the last Democrat holding state office, if that's what you mean. And I know, like the buffalo, they're hunting me. She's hoping to kill off my kind."

Lucy Baxley is being challenged by Republican Twinkle Andress Cavanaugh. A 46-year-old Republican, who also is a member of the Public Service Commission.

It is indeed a race that pits two women from two different generations and two very different political ideologies, but two women who share a passion for politics and who have tangled before.

That’s why it’s important to go out and vote in large numbers on November 6, 2012. It matters!
