I'm Voting for Scott Ballard

Wed, 09 Jul 2008 18:26:14 -0400

My name is Holly Peace. Scott Ballard hired me as his legal assistant in August, 2003. I worked for him at Ballard & Ballard helping him defend criminals in Fayette County for a year, until he came to me one day and said he was running for District Attorney. He told me that he had a heart for protecting this circuit, and felt there was a need for someone to step in and do a better job of prosecuting. To do this, Scott gave up a much larger salary, opened his personal life to the public, and worked hard to campaign for the position.

Mr Babb ,
Should be aware he is quickly losing votes thanks to his supporters driving around town breaking the law. Example the Woman in the Yellow S-10 this morning speeding at 70 Mph in a 45 Mph zone through Brooks, or the fellow in the Black Ford F-150 doing 60 in a 40 in Peachtree City.

Local Races and the Citizen

There are so many people running for office during this election cycle it is going to be very hard to "get the message out" Will the citizen allow for candidates to write essays on their positions this time around?
