Updated Contributions

Additions to this list since the last posting are indicated by a square.

This is a list of candidates and who has contributed to their respective campaigns. Don't jump to any conclusions if you don't recognize a name or they are not from Tunica. The contributor could be anyone...an old friend, a relative, an old college buddy...who just wants to support the candidate. If you have a question, ask the candidate. You have a right to know and a responsibility to be informed. Some of this updated information does not make sense to me from my notes. When I have a moment, I will go back to the Courthouse and will make any corrections. Hey, any complaints, keep them to yourself. At least I’m trying to give you a little bit of the information you need to make an informed decision. What are you doing to bring "change" to Tunica County?
