Nothing for Harry to ad here.
We cannot allow the cycle of inherited power and privilege to continue unchecked, especially in a community that deserves real leadership — not hand-me-down influence.
What’s being handed to us is not a vision, not a plan, not even a record of earned trust — it’s a name. A legacy of entitlement that has already worn out its welcome. The very fact that “Baby Felton” is being positioned as a serious candidate not because of merit, but because of bloodline, wealth, and proximity to power, is exactly what so many of us are trying to move away from.
Let’s be honest: a vote for Baby Felton isn’t just a vote for more of the same — it’s a guarantee that money and opportunity will continue to circulate in the same tight family circle. If history is our guide, we can expect more of our tax dollars ending up in the pockets of family members like his cousin, John Erwin Jr. Is that public service, or private enrichment?
Nepotism and the “good old boy” system are not just tired — they are corrosive. They strip away opportunity, silence innovation, and perpetuate a system where access matters more than ability. We’ve seen what that looks like. We know where it leads. And no — we don’t want another Felton.
This isn’t about appearance, background, or wardrobe. It’s about qualifications. It’s about values. It’s about the deep frustration of watching local leadership become a family heirloom instead of a public trust.
Let’s be clear: the future of this town should not be carved out by the hands of those who believe their last name is their résumé. We need new voices, real ideas, and leadership that represents all of us — not just the ones born into the right rooms.
We owe that much to our community. And we owe far more to the next generation than another coronation ceremony for a well-connected heir.
Let’s move forward — not backward into dynasty politics.
