Being hired in 2001 under then Rod Shoap taught me a lot about local politics. Then watching Mike Scott beat Rod Shoap taught me even more, change was needed. I actually reached out to Jim Leavens to hear of his vision and follow his social media. So far there is a group of retired employees backing him that spoke poorly of him before, now praise him, but I guess that is politics in Lee County. I’m not a big fan of his endorsements, those are some of the past supervisors or Sheriffs that we’re ruining LCSO. That’s why they were beat in prior elections handily. I was listening to you Jim, but I can’t see going backwards, most that are supporting you are retired employees from 10,15 or even 25 years ago. Pay attention everyone, there is a new candidate coming that will have a real background and some serious money to challenge all in the race.
