Crunch Time


A new poll today from The Beacon showed that Mayor Wood and Lori Henry both had 26.2% of the vote in Roswell, while David Tolleson trailed with only a meek 15.6% of the vote. The Beacon has done it again! Their last two polls have shown a tie of some sort to the tenth of a percentage point. What is the likelihood of that? About 1 in 1,000,000,000, or something like that (too lazy to do the math). So is The Beacon telling the whole truth with these polls? Common sense tells us that any election polls of the past have never showed much accuracy, and this is no different. The underdog in this election, Lori Henry, has somehow shown resilience and is beating Councilman Tolleson by more than 10 percentage points? No way. Whatever the polls say, it's clear now that Mayor Wood, Lori Henry, and David Tolleson all need to fight to the finish because this election is likely to be decided in the next week. Back in the law office, things are getting hectic. After the calls made on Sunday to many different constituents, over 100 yard signs have been requested. That's more than double all the yard signs requested in the past few months of the campaign! This shows that it's crunch time in the campaign: it's time to win this thing.
