Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIn Stonewall County, all eyes were on the upcoming May election—until there wasn’t one. With no challengers stepping up for city council, school board, or hospital district seats, officials will likely cancel their elections in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, in Rotan, voters will head to the polls to decide on two key measures: a $7.5 million bond for school renovations and teacher housing, and two propositions from the Economic Development Corporation aimed at expanding funding for local projects.Financial updates were also front and center at last week’s Stonewall Memorial Hospital District meeting, where leaders reported three consecutive months of positive growth.And finally, in this week’s editorial, Editor Jeff Hurt asks an important question: Are we avoiding elections out of confidence in our leaders—or simply a lack of interest in stepping up?
