OUR OPINION Who’s qualified to lead, and how can you tell? he field is set for this fall’s primary and general election. Just because T someone has qualified to seek local office doesn’t mean they are actually quali- fied to hold the seat they seek, however. How do you assess their abilities? A county commission seat, as we see it, is akin to a seat on the board of directors of a $150 million a year corporation, that sum being roughly our annual budget. In the end, commissioners are managing a corporation funded by your tax dollars. Their focus is rarely on social issues (though these are the ones that sometimes get all the attention). Their focus is fiscal, pure and simple.
