i'll hold off any further till it's confirmed by my sources...

Clod, bless your heart, what are you talking about?

So Bucky has decided not to run for sheriff?

If I remember correctly......Mickey, Rickey, Munday, and Maultsby resigned before Hartley was sworn. Mochen was and still is not certified in NC, so he was not asked to swear in for Hartley. So again we are back to what? 2?

You forgot Mickey and his 5 grand dog.

Well let'e see Fich, We have Mochen, Munday, Maultsby, the Chief Jailer, Hartley's secretary, Clayton, Boyles. That's at least 7 that I know of. I'm sure with a little digging, I could come up with more.

Jack, they may be trying to find several people to claim they made part of the Nelson/Sharpie contributions. They do not want it to look like a candidate for Sherriff has been bought and paid for since the day the first Mochen billboard went up.

Truth where is that transparency Mooch is advertising? We are still waiting for you to post the campaign finances of Mooch.

What’s that make, 2?

Not really the same thing.

Absher/Hartley forced another one out yesterday. When does it stop?

I believe Hartley was an MP during the Korean Conflict.

The corrupt and their backers have a vendetta against officials they can not buy or control. The people of Ashe see this and understand this. They will never vote for this. If the corrupt had any hope of controlling Ashe County offices, they should have picked someone other than Bufurt to be their first puppet.

You know, during this whole ordeal over the past 16 months, the fact that Hartley even exists has tore up Bufurt and his small fan club. The fact that he was elected to 4 terms and never having worked a day before that in law enforcement or received a BLET certification and that people questioned Bufurt’s “resume” made them all furious. And for him to be picked as the interim sheriff is so angering to them, it keeps them up at night, wishing him dead

Bull, I say again show us proof that Hartley put the GOP or his own interests above the needs of the SO or the people of Ashe. He has filled the empty slots with quality personnel and filled other slots with experienced former employees. Show us how he was political in these actions.

Again he is a puppet being told what to do or who to terminate

Bull, show us how Hartley put the Republican Party or his interests above what is best for the SO and the citizens.

If anyone thinks Mooch is still vetting chief deputy candidates, you are dumber than Paula Perry. All signs point to Bufurt will have another job if Mooch manages to get elected.

Hartley was ok during his 16 years. Now you are the one telling fibs! He does put politics in it, sad he wasn’t going to terminate anyone , look what he done! Absolutely didn’t tell the truth. Of course we all know who is telling him what to do.

Hartley was elected Sherriff for 16 years. He is calling the shots. You complain because he does the right thing and keeps politics out of his decisions. To those that backed Bufurt and now Mochen, quality takes a back seat to politics and self interests. The voters see and understand this. The good people of Ashe want no more of the BS they have had to put up with in 2017.
