Ted Heavrin's county council celebrates after slashing remaining fat from the 2011 budget.
I see that Ted Heavrin is running for Floyd County Council.
Again.
It's only been two years since Floyd County was doomed to ruin when Heavrin, sole possessor of the ATM password, was deposed in the primary. His loss prompted the News and Tribune's Chris Morris to break out his shoeshine kit, but then Heavrin staged a dramatic comeback and returned to vetoing budgets as a member of the board of the Floyd County Parks Department, pausing only to secede from the county and establish his own island kingdom -- which failed when Ricardo Montalban finally died.
Heavrin's 2014 yard signs have been appropriately doctored to block weird traces of previous campaign use, such as the "re-" in "re-elect." Given his legislative background, we can posit that he didn't buy new signs because the county couldn't afford them.
But seriously, I wouldn't vote for Heavrin for dog catcher. I've no doubt he would catch the dogs, but he'd also starve them like he did the county all those years.
Starving poor animals plainly would be cruel ... almost as cruel as Heavrin being elected to council.
Again.
Looks like Barbara Sillings is the choice in District 2. I don't know here, but we all know him.
Ouch.

She used to be county assessor, I believe, until she lost (or was term limited). Had a little bit of interaction with her for both work and personally. Was not impressed. She's not Ted, but that's about as much of an endorsement as I can muster.
Can you say retread?
