Stay in Lancaster says
Great. Another candidate backed by money funneled in through Rex and the Lancaster good old boy network. They control every board and seat in the AV except Michael Rives and Bettencourt. Bettencourt’s opponent had nearly 10 grand of Lancaster money but got beat. Miracles do happen.
