Where is Heyward Hutson? I hope nothing has befallen him or his family. He was not present at the political forum last week. With less than two weeks until the primary, this seems odd. He was also not in Columbia. The cigarette tax increase and immigration bill, both extremely important issues, were voted on in his absence. Why were we not represented? Is he purposefully attempting to forfeit the primary? If so, why has he wasted money even participating? If this is all of the effort and responsibility we can expect, I would seriously consider placing my support elsewhere. I do hope he and his family are safe and well. Any information would be appreciated.

Sincerely,

Ida Carnes
