i’ll vote for freddy, not a circus at city hall, no corruption, and as for getting jobs in century, ha. if it requires getting a drug test before hiring a business would have to import illegal immigrants to work.

I believe Mr. Mccall is doing an outstanding job considering what he has to work with. Have you looked around Century lately? If you were a company would you really want to move in that area? I know my mother worked EXTREMELY hard trying to keep Century clean. That place is a mess is because a lot of people just don’t care or have pride. Not all but some, especially the younger generations. I just cringe every time I have to visit, and beg my parents to leave. Under the circumstances, I believe Mr. McCall is doing all he can to benefit the town as whole, and will continue to do so if reelected. They need more citizens wanting to work as oppose to a looking for a handout.
As far as illegal drugs and activities, that is for the Escambia County Sheriffs dept. They need to step up and do more not the Mayor. Whenever you see something suspicious call and report it.

Everyone needs to do the search on Evelyn Hammond. She should not have come back into the arena trying to get public office after the publicity that she has had. Did she not think all of this would come out AGAIN.? When you have as much against you on record as Ms Hammond has, going public and trying to get voted into something must be what she is wanting and that is publicity. It won’t hurt the other candidates but it sure will her.

Lord, I remember how upset my mother was that someone would accuse her of doing something like that. It hurt her badly…… But after a while we were able to joke about it. Folks, you need to realize before you make false staements that those things hurt and hurt badly. If you can’t run a fair race, you are not needed in the political arena.

Thanks SO FUNNY! Read the bottom of that article! Sounds pretty low to me.

“”Hammond was defeated 341 votes to 241 votes in her bid for reelection by now Mayor Freddie McCall. The race received a lot of media attention after Hammond alleged that McCall and new council member Nadine McCaw attempted to buy votes with money and watermelons, allegations that they both denied.”"

Anybody that knew Nadine McCaw knows she would never do that, God rest her poor soul. I can’t imagine Nadine looking down from heaven on this mess now.

Seriously???? They have worked on getting jobs int here, but no employers are going to come in there!!! Get real, you are fooling yourself if you think any businesses are really going to come. Be glad you’ve got someone in there that will try to get these dang drug dealers and thugs out of here!

What is The other candidate for mayor going to do but grandstand every single chance he gets. That’s all he did when he was a council member—-TROUBLE MAKER! If he gets elected in, I pitty your poor town. I don’t even live there, but from the way he has always acted (as reported on this website here) he is nothing but a short fuse ready to explode at any given time.

Do not know the Savage lady, but I did do some searches on her on Northescambia, and she seems to really be concerned about the town and always at the meetings voicing her concerns, that seems to be a good thing! How many of the other candidates show up that aren’t being paid to be there? That’s a good way to tell if someone really is concerned, or just running to get paid! just saying

>>An article listing the candidates qualifications for the office they are running for, would be nice to help voters make an educated vote and be informed.

And we run such an article in advance of the election.
