House 56 candidates growing in number

Be sure to check out Bessemer Science because this is really weird.

Qualifying to finish the term for Alabama House district 56 (Priscilla Dunn's former seat) is open until August 14. So far 4 people have qualified, and all I have to say is: boring!

The candidates are Clare Mitchell, wife of former mayor Quitman Mitchell, Lawrence McAdory, Louise Alexander, and LaBrenda Marshall Jones.

Other than Mitchell, haven't we just seen these names in election after election?

There are sure to be others to qualify.

Now I know these candidates and I like them all, but I don't know what they bring to a house seat. Well, McAdory, maybe, because he's been there.

We need a young person, or at least a progressive middle aged person. Are any of these candidates what you would consider "progressive?"

Let's see what they say.
