Here is a story that aired on WBIR newscast on Friday evening. Is it a coincidence that this is the same hometown as William Haslam’s Honorary Campaign Chairman Howard Baker? I don’t think so. Can this story just be dismissed as “these fire – boys are just driving by and helped me” I don’t think so. First of all, as the Huntsville Mayor why was he putting up campaign signs for a Gubernatorial candidate in the middle of the day when the taxpayers are paying his salary anyway? He shouldn’t.
To bring this issue closer to home. City of Knoxville crews have been enforcing the city ordinance that prohibits signs in the right of ways for all gubernatorial candidates except William E. Haslam. Is that a result of a direct order from the City’s sixth floor? or is that just these good ole city – boys just jumping in to help in everything?
