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!
