I have the work experience, education, and community involvement it takes to be a great mayor. I began working in the newspaper industry at the age of 16, working my way up to management positions at The Evansville Courier & Press and The Newburgh Register and The Boonville Standard. I worked my way through college, earning a Bachelor of Science Degree in Communications/Emphasis In Journalism from the University of Southern Indiana. In my mid-30s, while working full-time, I attended night school at the University of Evansville, earning a Master of Science Degree in Public Service Administration, graduating with a 3.97 grade point average. Before having the honor of serving as your Vanderburgh County Treasurer, I was the Chief Deputy in the Vanderburgh County Recorder’s Office from 2002-2008. Therefore, I have management experience in both the public and private sectors. I was president of the Mount Auburn Neighborhood Association from 2006-2008; I have been a proud member of the West Sector Police Station’s National Night Out Committee for many years; and I am involved in the United Neighborhoods of Evansville. As County Treasurer, I am the financial officer of the county, responsible for investing millions of taxpayer dollars each year. I have made many improvements to the Treasurer’s Office, including implementing an in-house printing project that has not only saved the county thousands of dollars, it has also made my office — as well as other county offices — more productive. This type of innovative, technology-driven decision-making is the type of leadership needed to move Evansville forward in the most efficient manner possible. I am an effective communicator and with my journalism experience I believe in openness and fairness. There will also be NO MORE Democratic Party caucuses held in the mayor’s office or in any other location. A quorum of City Council members meeting behind closed doors to discuss the people’s business is a disservice to our community and will not be tolerated. Thank you for your time and I’d appreciate your support on May 3 in the Democratic Party Primary election. Sincerely, Rick Davis.

Many Evansville residents have forgotten that our community is a great place to live, raise a family and grow a business. We need a leader willing and able to restore a sense of pride about our community. That begins with job creation, and it extends to fostering a better quality of life as well. I am the candidate best equipped to work in a bi-partisan manner for the betterment of our community. We must be unafraid to lead or try new and innovative solutions. I will be a mayor who listens and respectfully consider diverse points of view. As a neighbor, businessperson, and county executive, I have the experience and ability to lead Evansville to a better future.

Some people are easily impressed with a few big words strung together in such a way that they mean nothing.
There was a website error that caused us to lose the comments on this post from yesterday and this morning. I am trying to retrieve them.
I would like to apologize for all who were involved in the discussion yesterday. The ~17 comments from the last 24 hours are gone, and irretrievable. I will be taking measures to assure that this loss of data does not happen again.
No problem, my thoughts are only worth a penny anyway.
