What are Results for mayor's election in Rusk, Texas?
What about Athens ISD Bond Election?
It's a shame that people chose to take away the RIGHTS of someone to be able to purchase a LEGAL substance if they CHOSE to, with many touting religion as their reasoning. Maybe all of these "religious" people and organizations won't mind an increase in THEIR taxes to offset the revenue lost to Kilgore and Gregg County. I'm sure I'll be able to ask them myself though, when they come into those same establishments where they THINK their fellow "religious" friends won't see them.
