To the editor:

Having been out of town for a couple weeks, I just finished previous issues of The Graphic.

My letter is in response to council candidate John Mead’s letter, which more now than before has many voters believing his personal obligations and self-interests are not in Lake City’s best interests.

For a second time in a row, Mr. Mead will not be participating in a candidate forum. People, myself included, are really wondering about his council meeting attendance, should he get elected.
