County candidate

Mark Eastman of Winfield has filed for the Republican nomination to the seat Carmelita Clarkson now holds on the County Commission. She's a democrat.

A quick check of Courier archives show Eastman's been involved in Republican Party politics and done some charity work. He was appointed Richard Township Treasurer by the county in 2006.

Mark could be a breath of fresh air and mean progress for the county. He is fiscally responsible and will work better with Gary and Dick than Carmelita has.

I'm not so sure. There could be an awful lot of long meetings with him in them.
