While I have been at best dubious on Rep. Mark Hargove’s stances on many issues, this record is clear. He is a member of the Legislature found by the state Supreme Court to be in contempt and on Aug. 13 found again to be in contempt and facing a $100,000-a-day fine for not adequately funding education.

All the while, Hargove remains a standing member of the House Education Committee.

For that record, and quite more, I intend to replace Mr. Hargrove in 2016 with a bias for action. There must be accountability. I encourage you to think wisely and vote independently.
