sunny beach,

The Judge is not crooked nor has he been bought off. I was one in support of the repeal, however that effort has not materialized.

I am still optimistic about Dodge City and Ford County! Just because the repeal vote didn't make it does not mean an end to all the good things going on in our community.

I agree with Redhead 18, I feel we lost an important right. The right to vote. Sure, there was a vote in 1997 and I respect that, but I also believe that we, after following the law, brought about enough signatures to bring this issue to a vote. Not saying it would have gone in our favor, but at least the people would have had the opportunity.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm disappointed but also glad the repeal question is over!

I hope the City and County Commissions will be responsible and accountable with the money that we have entrusted to them. LOL!!!
