Supervisors’ candidates share goals, concerns, and reasons for running

By Jim Ridolphi for The Mechanicsville Local

Sample ballots, polling places, and information about the Voter Registrar/ Director of Elections are included in the 2019 Election Guide today.

Prsrt. Standard U.S. POSTAGE PAID Mechanicsville, VA Permit No.141

ASHLAND -- Eight Hanover citizens gathered at Randolph-Macon College last week for a polite, but focused discussion of issues on the collective minds of county residents.

All are seeking positions on the Hanover County Board of Supervisors and are candidates in the four contested races in the upcoming Nov. 2 election.

ChamberRVA sponsored the candidates’ forum and Randolph-Macon hosted the

event at Birdsong Hall.

Angela Kelly-Wiecek, Faye Pritchard and Canova Peterson are unopposed in their bids for re-election to the board.

The group fielded a variety of questions from R-MC professor Richard Meagher that covered the gambit of pressing issues.

Crystal Robens said she is running for office because it’s the right time in her life for such a pursuit. “I chose to run now because the time is right for me,” explaining that her daughter and son

have graduated from high school.

Robens is a process improvement and efficiency expert for the federal government and has lived in Hanover all of her life.

Her opponent in the Beaverdam District hardly needed an introduction.

“I will say that I’m running on my record.

I’ve been here a few years,” Aubrey “Bucky” Stanley said. “I’ve never voted for a tax increase and I’m pro-business,” he said before emphasizing the low crime

of experience on the board that includes two chairmanships and his commitment to public service.

With a record of strong support for public safety, Davis has been endorsed by Col. David R. Hines, sheriff of Hanover County, and the Hanover Professional Firefighters.

Davis is a strong supporter of Hanover schools and endorses smart growth for the county.

Sue Dibble, current Hanover County School Board member from the South Anna District, is running for the supervisor’s seat in that district. She said she “welcomes the opportunity to continue to serve South Anna.�

Dibble, a Republican and South Anna representative on the school board, is a small business owner and wife/ mother who said she treasures the rural nature of the county. “In the past six years, I’ve had a great and unique opportunity to meet and get to know our students and their families,�

Dibble said.

Clara Scott is a former principal and said she’s running because “the county is running in the wrong direction� and “it’s time for me to give back to the community.�

Scott serves on the board of Hanover Habitat for Humanity and works with other civic organizations.

All candidates were allotted

one-minute periods to answer the same questions that included education and schools, infrastructure, economic development, and affordable housing.

Regarding education and how Hanover schools can best prepare students for today’s workplace, the candidates expressed similar concerns, but there also were differences in approach.

Robens said she supports an elected school board and stressed the need for improved broadband internet service in the Beaverdam area.

She said schools need to prepare students through training programs as well as college preparatory disciplines. “We need to prepare our students for the future whether they choose college or not,�

Robens said.

Stanley noted the excellence of the county’s schools and said technical programs are offering options for those not interested in college educations.

Doran also stressed the need for high speed internet access upgrades and said the failure to provide Hanover students with the latest technology is, in his mind, a “handicap for future generations.� “We need to make sure all students have equal opportunity to access their school work, or do research for projects,� he said.

Herzberg said he views public safety on county campuses as a major focus of attention, and supports continued efforts to make salaries competitive.

Chesley, a former high school principal, said infrastructure is a mounting problem in Hanover’s aging campuses. “We can’t just continue to patch older buildings.�

He also committed to a system that fully supports the teachers.

Davis said he’s focused on making sure Hanover schools are preparing students for today’s work place, and cited expanding CTE (Career Technical Education) programs. “It’s important that we identify the skill-sets needed for the future,� Davis said.

Dibble said, “Hanover schools are strong. We want to make sure every student is prepared for the life ahead of them.�

She identified the need for more counselors and enhanced safety measures in the system.

Scott acknowledged that the county has great schools, while noting “there’s always room for improvement. We can do better.�

She stressed the need to address non-academic issues such as behavior, and cited a need to prepare our students

Harbor, is a budget planner and manager for the state and said those are valuable skills to have on the board. “I bring budget management and experience to the table,� he said.

Doran has a son and daughter in Hanover schools and is involved with events in their schools.

Herzberg is the Republican candidate seeking the Cold Harbor seat, and said his occupation also prepares him well for public service. “One good thing about heating and air conditioning is that you go through hard knocks. I have spent three decades listening to people and solving their problems,� he said in an opening statement. “One of my biggest assets I will bring is the ability to work together and bring people together as a team to get things done for the people,� Herzberg said.

Daryl Chesley, an Independent running for the Henry District seat currently occupied by Sean Davis said he is running “to make sure that all ideas are heard.�

Chesley citied his experience in the U.S. Navy and at both state and national levels of small and large organizations and said he also is a process and efficiency expert.

Chesley also served as an administrator for Hanover County Public Schools.

Washington called clear choice for 97th District We have an amazing opportunity in the 97th District to elect a servant representative; one who proudly served his nation in the United States Army and now wants to serve in the General Assembly.

Dr. Kevin Washington, a resident of New Kent, has been working tirelessly to meet and listen to the needs of all residents of the 97th.

I’ve had the pleasure of seeing up-close and in person how Kevin respects and honors all individuals.

He asks questions, he seeks and provides solutions to the people he meets on the campaign trail without waiting to be elected, regardless of party affiliation.

He doesn’t seek to serve in a partisan manner, but in a manner that benefits all constituents of the 97th.

He is dedicated to improving the education system for our children, including making sure our teachers are fully compensated and increasing access to early education. He will work to ensure increased access to affordable healthcare across our region.

Rural counties have been hard hit by the rising cost of medical care and Kevin understands how critical it is to our citizens to have great, affordable care close to home. As part of that, he understands, as an IT professional, how rural broadband extension is an

absolute necessity, for medical care and education. He has the knowledge and dedication to bring broadband solutions to our district to benefit all.

Kevin is a man of honor, who has the leadership ability and integrity to ensure that all of the citizens of the 97th have a voice in the General Assembly.

Davis responded to need for roundabout One night just before Christmas several years ago I almost get into a serious auto accident at the Studley/ Rural Point intersection.

Yes, I should have looked better before I pulled out. But suddenly the truck was coming at me and I barely made it -- no harm to me or my car!

(My apology if the other driver reads this!)

I got to say it: Praise Jesus!

I decided after that near-miss that I would contact my supervisor, Sean Davis, and let him know that there needed to be essential reforms to this intersection. Somebody was going to get killed or seriously hurt.

Supervisor Davis was responsive and eventually he told me: “We’re doing something about this intersection -- it’s a traffic circle.”

I admit: I was skeptical. But it is a great traffic calming device. It slows down drivers. And it was built without a serious disruption to traffic.

I am glad to see this effort. Perhaps lives were saved.

I am told there will be another

Participation may change GOP in 97th After reading letters to the editor since the Scott Wyatt/Chris Peace election controversy, I have many thoughts.

First, the Peace corps needs to get out the crying towels. If some of the writers in support of a real Hanover resident (Peace) became engaged and actually attended Hanover Republican Party meetings instead of sending surrogates they would have had a vote on the decision-making process of Convention vs. Primary.

Forget the fact that the leadership of the Hanover RPV (Republican Party of Virginia) was in the tank for Mr. Peace; a legitimate vote was taken.

Second, a well-published meeting was held at Stonewall Jackson Middle School with a very large crowd (many hundreds) that somehow knew there was a meeting to select delegates going on. There were both Peace and Wyatt supporters. It was evident to all

that there were far more Wyatt signs and supporters than Peace fans! How did so many people know to be there (long lines registering)?

We saw people we haven’t seen in years but they got the word. Is it possible that Mr. Peace didn’t take serious the organization Mr. Wyatt put together or was his surrogate information just flawed? They packed their bags and left -- it was so evident they were getting smoked!

Let’s go home and pull out all the reasons we were cheated or taken advantage of. All the good people who in good faith went to Stonewall now had to go to Atlee High School for a do-over. Again, many from both camps were in attendance but clearly far and away more Scott Wyatt supporters.

Let’s pack our bags and try another claim of being cheated from the Peace Camp. How about a firehouse convention? Pat yourselves on the back Peacers and try again by writing in your candidate. Help insure that our fully qualified candidate won’t get elected but we are going to take our ball and go home again!

Remember that Red Flag laws will be first and foremost on the legislative agenda and know all you Second Amendment gun owners and supporters will be more than sad.

Please go online and Google how egregious Red Flag laws have been to Colorado residents! Come to our Hanover Republican Party meetings and get engaged and informed.

Amen, folks, and hopefully you will not send another delegate to the legislature to caucus with the Democrats.

Dining car spot-on about millennials I had to smile when I read Jim Ridolphi’s nostalgic look back about the disappearing dining car. He was right about millennials causing this decline but not because they don’t want to interact with strangers. It’s due to their takeover of the dining car.

No one can eat there. Last November I was on a train from Richmond to New York and the millennials took over the few tables with their laptops.

There were tables for four but you would see one millennial with a laptop, fully settled in, taking up the whole table. The only way you could eat there was if you ask the porter and then he will make a place for you.

Be heard by voting for Doran In the next few weeks we will have the opportunity to be heard at the ballot box by voting for representatives at the local and state levels.

James Doran is running for Hanover County Board of Supervisors Cold Harbor District.

I’ve known James and his wonderful family for many years and was thrilled when he stepped up to run for the Hanover County Board of Supervisors representing the Cold Harbor District.

He is an involved and long-time resident of the Cold Harbor District.

Hanover will need strong, informed representation on the board of supervisors to tackle issues like keeping our schools strong and improving, managing growth in a responsible, smart way and, bringing broadband to everyone in the county.

James has been very involved in moving the process forward to get options for rural broadband in Hanover. Learning, proposing solutions and bringing folks together to get this done is work James is already doing on this front. Think see LETTERS, pg. 8

James knows so much about Hanover County Public Schools. He’s a regular attendee at the Hanover County School Board meetings and schoolrelated events. He knows firsthand how great our schools are and what needs to happen to have them be even better. Our students and teachers need James’ ideas and energy!

Growth in Hanover needs to be managed considering impact on traffic, school capacity, and other public services. James is for strategic small scale growth keeping all this in mind.

For all these reasons, I support James Doran for Cold Harbor supervisor on Nov. 5.

Peace of mind: pre-planning takes the burden of making important decisions off of your loved ones during a difficult time.

Financial assurance: pre-payment of your funeral through Bennett Funeral Home will render the costs associated with your final expenses inflation proof.

The Mechanicsville Local

October 23, 2019

In so many elections people end up voting against someone. This year we have the opportunity to vote for someone.

Chris Peace has served the 97th District honorably and with distinction and I look forward to writing his name in on my ballot.

The local Republican Party made the nomination process this year a complete train wreck. It was a complete disservice to the constituents of this great district.

I’ve seen the back and forth discussions -- if you vote for this person, it’s a ballot for another -- and it’s complete nonsense given the demographics of this district.

Democrats have a highly qualified candidate in Kevin Washington and should be proud to cast a ballot on his

behalf.

Republicans have a choice.

Elections are indeed a performance evaluation of the incumbent and in my opinion Chris Peace has demonstrated that he deserves our continued support.

This November, vote for the candidate that you support and don’t hesitate to “write-in” your candidate of choice.

Robert Bradshaw Mechanicsville

Rebuttal offered to school names (Editor’s note: The following was submitted as “Rebuttal to Mr. Dickerson’s Lee-Davis/ Stonewall Jackson headache.)

Paul. Paul. Paul.

Sorry for this rebuttal since I was determined to write a letter to “rally all patriots” to the (recent) cause to rid the world of Trump (again) because (this time) his phone call to Erdogan ($4 million investor in Trump Tower, Istanbul) is (as I write) causing the massacre of thousands of our allies (force protection units) the Kurdish “Rebels.”

Your racist (I’m not complaining or griping, just warning folks) letter (Oct. 9 Mechanicsville Local) is riddled with ignorance (another one out here in what was once Klan land) about our history or what came as a result of this history.

Dang, Dude (for lack of a more vivid epithet)! Your letter seems to be some type of writing sample for an application as “propaganda minister” for (a “controversial group’s”) furtherance of “the cause.”

You’ve totally lost an opportunity to put yourself in another man’s shoes. You’ve paralleled Obama and King to “rebel?” By the way, J. Edgar Hoover (and George Wallace) called Dr. King a communist as well as “rebel.”

Know what NAACP started out as (I’ll wait as you imagine the Jeopardy jingle running)?

This organization began as a group of folks gathered to see to it that black folks could vote without threat of physical harm! Imagine that, as we’re getting close to another voting poll opening. How’d you feel if you were in fear of simply exercising your constitutional right in your democracy as you voted? Wouldn’t you appreciate assistance even if it meant starting an advocacy group?

Gen. R.E. Lee was one of my heroes. So was Lt. Gen. T. Jonathan “Stonewall” Jackson and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X (as well as my dad). So is Barack Obama (mostly for standing up against the continued onslaught of the entire Republican caucus for eight years).

Point of the last paragraph was to show respect for and realize simultaneously that there’s a place and time for everything, which you’ve clearly missed.

What does “neither school denies any race the right to attend it” mean? The UNCF (United Negro College Fund) was meant to give a leg-up in 1944 to black folks (about the same time Harry Truman segregated all the forces). You think these twin causes may’ve been related?

Do you know (by way of similar functions) that you can go to say Virginia Union University or Virginia State University (yes, I remember you’re a “Caucasian”) with a “minority scholarship.”

Do you know that Caucasian kids have dozens and dozens of “college funds” (uh, scholarships). Many of these are private (catering directly to a privileged white child).

“Aren’t the UNCF/NAACP racist?” What kind of (gotta use “danged”‘ again, dang it) question is that? These organizations were founded to stave off racist hatred in the first

place.

Remember, three clinical reasons for hated: 1). Fear of the hated.

2). Envy of the hated.

3). Hatred of self.

Sounds to me like you’re envious (at least).

I don’t think Obama High School or Martin Luther King Boulevard makes white folks upset. However, I’m sure Adolf Hitler High or Mussolini Middle could enrage a Jewish kid.

Umm, tell me: Just how would “OHS” and/or “MLK Blvd” interrupt “Caucasian students’ ” First Amendment (free speech) and 14th Amendment (naturalization) rights by existing?

Maybe (indeed) you should sit down and think.

Generals (both dead and alive) do not care about politics (except maybe for Maj. Gen. Nathan B. Forrest). They just do their jobs. Lee and Jackson were just soldiers doing their jobs.

I really think it isn’t their names but their “cause” which may offend folks.

The folks who feel offended also may feel the need to change/foster/progress or move forward by removing certain reminders.

Just like the monuments downtown; maybe there should be a referendum or vote on the matter.

Certainly throwing spears at folks in an unnecessary manner isn’t the way forward.

My 2¢ worth.

Rotary clubs continue efforts to eradicate polio Staff Report news@mechlocal.com MECHANICSVILLE – Rotary clubs around the world have a common goal: to eradicate polio.

According to Janice Henicheck of the Hanover Rotary Club, “When conquered it will be the second world infectious disease to be eliminated.”

Colleen Bonadonna, who serves as District Polio Plus chair, has organized a program, which is open to the public, at the Virginia Museum of History & Culture at 428 N. Arthur Ashe Blvd. in Richmond.

Countdown to History will be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 24.

The program will include: historical memorabilia; information about what Rotary and partners do t eradicate polio; virtual reality; what it takes to reach every last child; and polio survivors and healthcare workers will discuss the disease.

Henicheck added, “Rotary’s

top priority is to Eradicate Polio. Since Rotary and partners started in 1988, the number of polio cases dropped 99.9 percent worldwide. But as long as polio threatens one child, children everywhere are at risk.”

She said Rotary has contributed more than $1.8 billion in the fight to end polio. .

“Rotarians work tirelessly to leverage this investment, acting as advocates among communities and with government leaders to keep them focused on eradication,” Henicheck continued. “Rotary’s partners include UNICEF, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.”

Statistics include: $3 average cost to fully protect a child against polio.

430 million children vaccinated in 39 countries in 2017.

$100 million cost to conduct polio surveillance worldwide.

I am a voter; I have a voice.

I am deeply upset at the way things have been done in “selecting” the Republican candidate for the House of Delegates this year.

Instead of a process that is open, transparent, and allows for majority participation, the “selected” nominee, encouraged and participated in a process that led to voter confusion, a process closed to all but a few, and lacked transparency.

In all my years, I have never seen someone run for office stating they want to represent the “voice of the people”, that has worked tirelessly to suppress the voice of the majority of the people.

I know my friends, family, and neighbors here in Hanover County to be good, God-fearing people that stand firm in their morals, values, and principles.

On Nov. 5, I will be voting my principles, I will write in Chris Peace.

It’s not about any one individual, it’s about integrity.

It’s the principle of the matter.

Voter explains support for Wyatt in 97th

Voter says he was forced out of meeting

As we draw near to the upcoming election, I’d like to take a little of your time and let you know about the candidate I’m going to vote for, Scott Wyatt.

I’ve known Scott for over 20 years, long before he entered the world of politics and soon after moving here to Hanover after a 22-year career with the U.S. Coast Guard.

So, no, I’m not a Hanoverian by birth, but being in the military generally means you find a great place to live after traveling and living in many places around our great country.

Hanover County is just that kind of place.

My time in the service quickly taught me to determine the character of a person. From the very first time I met Scott he was open and friendly. He wanted to know all about you, and rarely about talked himself -- a true gentleman.

Scott Wyatt is a person of outstanding values.

First and foremost, Scott is a devoted husband and father.

You see his family with him all the time -- a true sign of values and commitment.

Through the many years I’ve known him, he has consistently given freely of his time and energy to many noteworthy endeavors; all for the betterment of our community.

He supports the values of religious freedoms and time and time again has proven his unwavering commitment to the citizens of Hanover County, especially our first responders and military.

I encourage you to cast your vote for Scott. He has gained my support, and my vote, as our next delegate.

I am that man!

On April 11, I was physically forced out of the Hanover Republican Mass Meeting in my own wheelchair. Four days later, a surgeon operated on my spine. I went to the meeting to exercise my constitutional rights as a citizen despite my condition.

Many have and it is fair to ask, “Why was I thrown out of the meeting?”

According to Scott Wyatt’s initial quote to the Richmond Times-Dispatch (RTD), I was ejected because I had reportedly threatened to put the meeting chairman Russ Wright in a “body bag”. That doesn’t even make sense.

I called the RTD and complained about the report because I knew I had never said such a thing. The RTD investigated by interviewing people and reviewing a video of the meeting. The reporter determined what I already knew -- that I had said no such thing.

When called for a retraction, Scott Wyatt knew it too and then claimed that I was being “disruptive”.

Disruptive? I guess that’s what you call it: 1) when you change your story, and 2) when your hand-picked chairman, Russ Wright, and parliamentarian fail to follow the Roberts Rules of Order (Rules) as voted upon at the beginning of the Mass Meeting.

The chair may have thought I was “out of order” but only because he failed to acknowledge the “appeal the decision of the chair” motion, which I had made.

By rule, I was totally within my rights as a delegate to the meeting. The reality is that Russ had already lost control of the meeting. I was the least see LETTERS, pg. 19

Dr. Bosher: Persistence paid off in career Wildlife biologist

By Roslyn Ryan Richmond Suburban News

L

ooking back on his nearly four decades as one of the region’s top vascular surgeon, Dr. L. Paul Bosher admits that there is one particular quality that may have played a role in his success.

As his mother always told him, he was blessed with a rare kind of persistence when it came to solving tricky problems — he simply didn’t give up.

Bosher, who will retire this month as vascular surgeon with Vascular Surgical Associates of Richmond, has spent years taking care of patients and earning a reputation as one of the region’s most talented vascular surgeons.

After graduating from North Carolina State University in 1970, Bosher went on to earn his medical degree from the Medical College of Virginia in 1974.

Next came further training at the University of Virginia, where he completed his

surgical residency, and then fellowships in cardiopulmonary disease, cardiovascular research and peripheral vascular surgery.

While he has loved the practice of medicine — and the many patients whose lives he’s been able to impact along the way — there have certainly been challenges as well.

The loss of a limb due to vascular disease has always been “the bane of my existence,” Bosher said, and he counts being able to save a limb that a patient thought they would lose as among the most rewarding things he has been able to do in his career.

Bosher said he has always tried to do nothing less than his absolute best for every patient, and when things occasionally did go wrong he often carried the burden home with him.

Through it all, Bosher said, when he is taking care of patients, “I always asked myself ‘What would I do if this was my parent, or my sister?’ ” Dealing with the ups-anddowns was a challenge, Bosher

explains why whitetail deer prefer your yard Contributed Report news@mechlocal.com RICHMOND – Why do deer like your yard? Why do they prefer your flowers and shrubs to your neighbor’s?

Why do we have so many deer in Virginia?

David Garst, District Wildlife Biologist with Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, will share the answers to

DR. L. PAUL BOSHER said, but he never had a day that he regretted going into medicine.

As for the words he has always lived by, Bosher said his philosophy can be

summed up in two simple phrases: “Stick to the task at hand” and “And don’t ever give up.”

Deadline nears for entries in Olde Time Holiday Parade

The Olde Time Holiday Parade, held the Sunday before Thanksgiving, will get underway at 2 p.m. Nov. 24.

Joel Klein for The Mechanicsville Local

Members of the Board of Directors of the Montpelier Center for Arts & Education show off the newly unveiled "LOVE" sign at The Montpelier Center's 90th Anniversary party on Sunday, Oct. 13. Among those attending the special event was Virginia Waldrop, 101, of Montpelier. She showed off her photo in the faculty section of the 1959 "Cardinal" Montpelier School yearbook. She taught at the school from 1942-1962.

About 100 entries normally make their way along the parade route.

In order for the Kiwanis Club to complete planning, those wishing to join in the festivities are encouraged to respond to the emails that were sent out the second week of September.

The parade route follows Snead Street along Thompson Street to England Street then turns down Henry Street and ends at Archie Canon Boulevard.

Organizations that have not participated in the past but would like to be consider for this year’s parade may apply at https://www.surveymonkey. com/r/AshlandParade.

Adding entries after the lineup has been established is difficult and may prove impossible.

LETTERS Continued from pg. 14

of his problems. Nonetheless, he used me as his scapegoat to regain control of the meeting.

Shame on Russ Wright.

I will stand up for what is right. Russ refused to follow parliamentary procedure.

Russ then failed with my subsequent “point of order” for his failing to obey the rules.

Russ was wrong and used his bully power to eject me.

He was obligated to respond by rule to both of my motions.

Oh, he responded all right, not in the appropriate parliamentarian way but by physically removing me.

What Russ Wright did was he cheated me out of my voice

as a delegate and my opportunity to vote at that meeting.

What Scott Wyatt did was he made up a lie why I was ejected from that meeting.

This is unjustifiable and inexcusable for a politician.

I’ll share with you one other fact: On Wednesday, Oct. 9, I had a “private message” discussion on Facebook with Scott Wyatt regarding a “Write-In Chris Peace” yard sign, which was removed during the week of Oct. 6. It was a civil discussion.

No one can know who took the sign, but we can guess, especially when Wyatt’s yard sign was placed within two feet of my sign at the same time the yard sign for Chris Peace went missing, eh?

Anyway, Scott has never apologized for the ejection from the Mass Meeting. When I mentioned the above situation during our Facebook conversation, Scott did not acknowledge it had happened and, consequently, still did not apologize for what happened to me personally, much less what he had said about why I was ejected.

Think, also, Tom Miller, a key player in Wyatt’s campaign who bullied the Republican Local Planning Committee (LPC) when Miller wouldn’t answer questions from the other representatives in at least three of the LPC meetings. At the end of those meetings, he stormed out and never answered the questions.

At the June LPC meeting

HURRY - LIMITED TIME OFFER!

at the Mechanicsville Library, Miller answered those fiscal and logistical questions.

A little bit late, wouldn’t you think? He knew the answers during the spring but wouldn’t answer them prior to the May Convention. Strange.

This is all so shameful of Scott Wyatt and his team that it makes me sick with anger.

Is Scott Wyatt, his supporters and campaign staff the kind of people we want representing us in the General Assembly’s 97th District? We must respond by saying “No”.

And here’s how to say, “No”. We still have a choice and it’s not a Democrat. I can

still vote Republican; not vote for Scott Wyatt; and keep the Republican majority in the House. The fact is that I was removed because I had stood for my rights. On Nov. 5, you have a choice to stand for your rights.

Write in Chris Peace, a loyal Republican even to this day.

The polling officials cannot tell you for whom to vote. The directions are on the ballot and the officials will share with you how to write-in your name of choice.

Stay tuned.

for the next century and make them globally competitive so “every child is successful.”

When asked the most important or pressing issues facing the county within the next one to two years, candidates offered a variety of replies with many centered on schools.

In addition to supporting elected school boards, Robens said teachers’ salary compression is forcing some teachers to leave the system and seek positions in neighboring counties.

She noted that some teachers who have 10 to 15 years experience are making little more than new hires.

Stanley said keeping the growth and development equation balanced is a big challenge.

The 36-year incumbent said commercial development is often accompanied with more rooftops to support the venture. “Rooftops don’t always make it work.”

Information submitted by Tom Harris, Hanover County public information officer.

Doran cited school facilities as a major issue facing the county and said the 10 schools identified on a recent renovation/replacement study was accompanied by a $300 million price tag.

“We need to find creative ways to upgrade facilities,” he said.

Herzberg said controlling growth and development is the number one issue in his mind and said people in Cold Harbor don’t want large developments in their district. “I would scrutinize every project,” he said.

He also cited the need to maintain top-notch public safety and said he would always “put Hanover citizens first.”

Chesley said he would search for ways to eliminate waste and improve efficiencies throughout the system. “There are opportunities,” he said.

Davis cited the burden that unfunded mandates place on local governments, pointing out a federally mandated

wastewater plan that is slated to cost the county $30 million.

He said mandated teacher raises from the state only include a portion of Hanover teachers and funding falls to the locality to make up the differences.

Davis said in a politically charged environment such as the one experienced today, there’s a real danger of “political legislation.”

Dibble said maintaining excellent schools and managing and balancing growth are major issues for her. She is committed to maintaining Hanover’s rural nature while providing excellent schools and public safety.

Hanover Business Council member Todd Rogers said he was pleased with the results of the forum.

“Any time voters can come out and hear the candidates makes them better informed when they enter the polls, so I think we had a successful evening tonight.”

Iraqi Freedom.

I have met Mr. Washington several times and he is earnest and a good listener.

When I wrote him that I thought his policy about gun control was unclear, he immediately clarified it on his website. I have the impression that I could talk to him at any time about anything, and he would listen respectfully.

Scott Wyatt, his opponent, seems to be basing his campaign on denying people health care.

He torpedoed Chris Peace after Peace compromised with

the Democrats and health care was extended through Medicaid to many thousands.

This just strikes me as selfish.

Is Wyatt saying, “I have mine, you don’t get yours”?

If we vote for Mr. Washington, we will have a delegate we can be proud of.

Patriots take control, overwhelm Hawks

By Daniel Fritz For the Mechanicsville Local ASHLAND – Patrick Henry was in complete control Friday night as it cruised to a 42-0 victory over county rival Hanover.

For the Patriots, who lead by 32 after the first half, it was not as much about the final score, as it was about finding their groove at this point in the season.

“I did think we started off slow, but once we got it going, we played really well on both sides of the ball,” said Patrick Henry head coach Ken Wakefield. “The defense in particular looked really good.”

Although Wakefield may not have been overly impressed with his team’s opening drive, it still resulted in a 12-play sequence that produced the game’s first points – a 33-yard field goal by kicker William Dorsey.

The Patriot defense completely shut down the Hawk offense in the first half. Hanover was limited to 67 total yards, and compiled just two first downs in the opening 24 minutes.

Meanwhile, the Patrick Henry offense quickly found its stride on the second possession of the game. On just the second play of the drive, Patriot quarterback Alex Sikkar took the snap from the Patriot 47.

He worked his way towards the sideline, weaved in and out of

traffic and took the ball to the endzone.

“Once I got to the sideline, I saw a bunch of guys, so I cut back and saw a great block by one of my teammates” Sikkar said. “I cut behind the block and was able to take it all the way.”

Sikkar lead the Patriots with 136 yards on the ground. He

nearly matched his run total with an additional 135 yards passing in just under three quarters of action before giving way to backup Jordan Allen to finish the game.

Patrick Henry led 10-0 at the start of the second quarter.

That score wouldn’t last long.

A few plays into the quarter, Patriot running back Antonio

Ford took a handoff and stutterstepped his way through the hole opened by his offensive line. He then went untouched for a 32-yard score.

After a quick three-and-out by the Hawks, Sikkar wasted little time to find receiver Camden Byrd for a 30-yard gain, setting up the Patriots just outside the Hanover goal line.

Running back Tyler Newell finished the drive with a 3-yard touchdown run up the middle.

On their final drive of the half, the Patriots looked to tack on to their lead. After nearly being sacked, Sikkar managed to elude the Hawks’ pass rush and scrambled around

BUENA VISTA – Among the equipment on the Randolph-Macon football sideline prior to their first Old Dominion Athletic Conference encounter with Southern Virginia University, a hard hat sat on a bench sporting the number “132” on its back. The number represented the longevity of the Yellow Jacket program.

When a defender causes a turnover, he is rewarded with wearing the hat during a sideline celebration. After RandolphMacon’s 47-27 with over the Knights Saturday, the budget may call for a replacement. see DEFENSE, pg. 29

Raiders romp over visiting Confederates

By Rob Witham For the Mechanicsville Local MECHANICSVILLE – The weather Friday evening at Atlee High School mirrored the fortunes of both the Atlee Raiders and Lee-Davis Confederates as they met in the 29th “Stew Bowl,” a rivalry dating back to 1991.

While the Raiders shined like the stars in the night sky, Lee-Davis shivered in a struggle to find any spark on any side of the ball. Atlee scored all of its points in a dominant first half, cruising to a 35-0 win which improved their record to 3-4, keeping their playoff hopes in Region 5B alive. Lee-Davis, meanwhile, fell to 2-5, seeing its postseason dreams in Region 4B become remote.

“I talked to the guys all week.

Lee-Davis has a great coach and very competitive kids,” Atlee head coach Matt Gray said. “I told them, I’m focusing on us giving everything we have, and I’m really proud of them.”

The Raiders seized momentum from the opening kick, taking more than seven minutes to drive down field for the first score of the game on a 3-yard run by Michael Fox. While diminutive, Fox – who rushed for 74 yards – has perhaps the biggest heart you’ll find on the gridiron.

“He makes no bones about it. He says, yeah, I’m the short guy. But watch, watch what I’ll do,” Gray said of the junior. “He wears it on his sleeve and he can churn out some yards.”

Tyler Warren can do the same. In the final minute of the first quarter, on a gadget play that saw Warren line up at Rachel Witham for The Local receiver, he took a pitch, then Atlee quarterback Tyler Warren breaks free for a big gain in the Raiders’ 35-0 win over visiting Lee-Davis Friday night. launched a 31-yard touchdown pass to Alex Oliver, who snuck ter. again, this time on a 47-yard grabbing the football over his Warren, back at quarterback, behind the Lee-Davis secondLess than three minutes later, touchdown that saw Oliver helmet.

Atlee led 14-0 after a quar- Warren and Oliver connected leap over a Lee-Davis defender, the half, facing a fourth down, tackles and hurdling a defender

for a 25-yard run to the end zone.

Then, with 2:12 left in the second, Joseph Slade got into the act, racing down the left side from 39 yards out to complete the scoring. The rest of the night belonged to the Atlee defense, who held Lee-Davis to just 179 total yards. The Confederates rushed for only 38 yards and were just 2-of-9 on third down.

Lee-Davis will host St. Christopher’s Friday, a game that will not count in their Virginia High School League rankings. Their faint playoff hopes will rest on upsetting Henrico and Patrick Henry to end the regular season, and, hope for some teams ahead of them to falter.

Meanwhile, Atlee entered the Stew Bowl 13th in the Region 5B standings, three and a half points out of the eighth and final playoff berth. With Clover Hill, L.C. Bird, and Glen Allen all winning, even victorious, the road to the playoffs got tougher for the Raiders, as they’ll begin this week three points out of eighth, and facing four-time defending state champion Highland Springs Friday night at Varina High School.

But while the road to the playoffs may be an uphill climb, for one night, as team captains held the Stew Bowl trophy high in the air, Atlee, and its fans, could celebrate a win over an archrival, and a job very well done.

Cavaliers break loss streak, thrash Mathews

By Rodney Robinson For the Mechanicsville Local CENTRAL GARAGE – After two straight losses following a 4-0 start, King William longed to get back to its winning ways. On Friday night at their homecoming, the Cavaliers did just that in spectacular fashion with an 80-6 victory over Mathews.

King William, led by an explosive offense and a stout defense, wasted no time taking the lead. After a long return on the opening kickoff leading to a touchdown, the Cavaliers forced Mathews to punt after a three-and-out. Sophomore wide receiver Demond Claiborne caught a 45-yard touchdown pass, extending the lead to 12.

The 12-point lead was all King William needed.

“Last time we were at home we lost to Washington Lee in a close one, three-point game right at the end of the game,” head coach Dylan DeHart said.

“Had a bye week, had to stew on it, then we had a really tough Warhill team and that game just didn’t go our way.”

The offense did not rest with a 12-0 lead, continuing to make big plays for the Cavaliers in the first half. King William amassed over 200 yards of total offense in the first two quarters.

King William was led by senior quarterback Lance Alfonso and sophomore wide receiver Demond Claiborne.

Alfonso completed 13-of20 passes for 203 yards and six touchdowns – three to Claiborne – with just one interception. Claiborne caught five passes for 97 yards. In addition to the three receiving touchdowns, he returned a punt 48 yards for a fourth score. Jayvon Robinson caught five passes for 63 yards and two touchdowns.

By Dave Lawrence Sports Editor King William’s Taylor Hubbard had been in that place before – in contention for a Virginia High School League class 2 state championship.

And he knew that the course – Virginia Tech’s Pete Dye River Course in Blacksburg – was a difficult one, so he wasn’t overly rattled when he bogeyed the 17th and 18th holes to finish even par. But Staunton’s Mason Wyatt had to double-bogey 18 to send them, along with Glenvar’s Avery Alexander – who birdied 18 – into a three-way playoff for the state individual title.

Hubbard, who won the Class 2 championship as a sophomore, knew he was the best golfer out there. His approach shot to the green left him about 8 feet away for a birdie. He felt he had it.

And he did, sinking the birdie putt to close out a stellar high school golf career and lead the Cavaliers to a fourth-place finish overall. “[Wyatt] just happened to double-bogey the super difficult last hole. … I just knew that there was going to be some extra golf,” Hubbard said of learning of Wyatt’s misfortune.

“The other kid made a 30-foot putt to get into the playoff.”

Hubbard was not fazed.

“It was all good. I’m a firm believer that everything happens for a reason,” he said. “I knew that a birdie would win it. I hit a driver. I had about 100 yards left in and hit a little knockdown wedge to the hole location to about 8 feet. The putt was breaking from right to left down the hill and I knew that if I got it on line it was going to go in.”

King William head coach Jay Blanton was proud of the team’s fourth-place finish. Josh Ibanez

CAVALIERS

PATRIOTS

Continued from pg. 26

Defensively, King William held Mathews scoreless until the fourth quarter. The special teams and the defense worked together to force seven turnovers – four fumbles and three interceptions – in a balanced performance on both sides of the ball.

Sophomore linebacker Ryan Southern got the special teams going in the first quarter.

After a scoring drive from the Cavaliers, King William kicked off to Mathews. After a crushing hit on the kickoff, forcing a fumble, Southern recovered the ball in the end zone, pushing the lead to 20.

“It was really about just cleaning up little things and trying to get back to the basics and building ourselves up because we know if we want to be a great team it’s not about the regular season, it’s about our results in the playoffs,” DeHart said.

The 5-2 Cavaliers close out the season with two games against archrival West Point and against King and Queen Central, both important games

DEFENSE Continued from pg. 24

Randolph-Macon forced five Southern Virginia turnovers, two of which became pick sixes in the first half, setting the pace for a game that again showed the Yellow Jacket defense as the stars of Team 132, with the rest of the team longing to equal that performance.

“I think we’re moving some things in the right direction,” said head coach Pedro Arruza.

“We’ve just got to get a couple of things figured out.”

The first is the kicking game.

After the offense methodically drove 98 yards over 13 plays, finishing on a 5-yard shovel pass

backfield, ultimately finding Zeik Williams for a 29-yard gain. A few plays later, Newell again found the end zone, blowing the game open to a 32-point margin going into the locker room at intermission.

The second half was played with a running clock. On the Patriots’ first drive of the half, Sikkar added another spectacular 60-yard touchdown scamper on his final carry of the night.

Hanover was led by quarterback Levi Huesman, whose rushing and passing accounted for three-fourths of the Hawks’ total yards.

Kicker William Dorsey closed out the scoring with a 43-yard field goal late in the fourth quarter.

Sikkar summarized his team’s performance.

“We continue to play well as a team, and build our leadership roles” Sikkar said. “That’s going to be crucial for us if we want to make a playoff run.”

Coach Wakefield echoed his quarterback’s comments.

quarter capped by an 8-yard Wallis reception.

Jake Wernle and Alex Halkias were again missing from the offensive line because of injuries. Nevertheless, the Yellow Jackets rushed for 265 yards, and Arruza believes that portion of the team’s offensive woes has been solved.

“What we had out there today is the unit we’re going to go with. I told the guys unless somebody gets beat out, that’s the unit,” Arruza said.

The Yellow Jackets begin their bye week at a perfect time.

They’ll look to get healthy, return some players, and most importantly, turn in extra preparation for Washington and Lee and its triple-option offense when the Generals come to Day

Field on Nov. 2.

Washington and Lee lost its first ODAC game in stunning fashion, blowing a 21-point lead to fall at Emory and Henry 48-42 on a 39-yard touchdown pass as time expired.

That leaves Randolph-Macon at 5-0 in conference play, and Bridgewater, who defeated Ferrum 53-10, at 4-0. The Eagles go to Washington and Lee this Saturday.

If the Yellow Jackets can survive the Generals, a chance to repeat as ODAC champions would likely await them when they travel to Bridgewater on Nov. 9. It’s do-or-die time for Randolph-Macon.

The defense, and its hard hat, are ready. The question is can the rest of the team finally

from Presley Egbers to Jordan Foster for the game’s first score, Chris Vidal, in his first game of the season due to injury, pushed the point after attempt wide right. Later, a 23-yard field goal try was missed.

The defense, however, was top notch. Following the first score, Calvin Whitehead perfectly jumped an inside route and intercepted a pass from Southern Virginia quarterback Davis Pinkston, racing 53 yards for a touchdown, and a tour with the hard hat.

After the teams traded touchdowns early in the second period, Pinkston felt pressure from the Yellow Jacket defensive line, launching an errant pass in the direction of linebacker Bryan Sullivan, who

returned the pick 27 yards for a score. Colin Brooker’s extra point upped the Yellow Jacket lead to 27-7. Shaheed Adeyola, who led Randolph-Macon in rushing with 91 yards, scored on a 5-yard run with 5:30 left in the half to cap a 47-yard drive made possible by a Stephen Richardson interception.

The 34-7 halftime lead allowed Arruza to use his second defensive unit for much of the second half.

Tre Frederick, who had a 27-yard touchdown run in the first half, did not play in the second half, finishing with 88 yards. Egbers finished 11-for-22 for 116 yards, 72 of them coming on a completion to tight end David Wallis, part of a touchdown drive to open the third

“We have some great young kids and it’s good we had an opportunity to use some of our depth tonight” Wakefield said.

“As we get into the final stretch of the season, it’s important we get a little better each week. We did that tonight. That’s going to go a long way if we hope to make a little noise in the playoffs this year.”

2019 ELECTION GUIDE

Smithson ensures smooth elections

By Melody Kinser Managing Editor

Metro Creative Connection

Cast your vote for the right candidate this election season.

Research candidates for elections

P

residential elections may grab the national headlines, but local elections also have a big impact on voters’ daily lives.

Locally elected officials are typically much more accessible to voters, whose participation in local elections can bring about real change.

With that in mind, here are some tips to prepare for Election Day, whether you are selecting state, county, town, provincial, labor union, or school officials.

Solidify your stance The first step to casting your vote is deciding how you feel about key issues and candidates.

Some voters back a particular political party, while others spend more time moving across party lines and standing with politicians who have like-minded goals and ideas. Make a list of the issues that you find most important and want addressed in this election. Then research the stance each candidate takes on the issues that most resonate with you.

Such information can save you the time and effort of looking into candidates on your own.

Delve further when needed to see if the facts are correct. Examine public records for policies candidates supported to confirm if their ideals are similar to your own.

Ignore the polls If you strongly support a candidate and his or her agenda, then stick with your preferences rather than relying on the polls. Polls may be used to sway indecisive voters. However, even though the polls may be indicating one thing, the real test of a candidate’s mettle is the end result come Election Day.

Attend a town hall meeting Many local candidates interact with voters at informal town hall meetings. This is a great chance to assess a candidate, and provides voters the opportunity to have their voices heard and ask questions about the issues that concern them.

You also may be able to watch candidate forums on television or online.

Research the candidates Conduct some preliminary research into each candidate running for office. Chances are their websites provide background information regarding their qualifications as well as their stances on certain issues. Many times newspapers will offer their own round-up on local candidates so you can get to know them further.

Q&A Continued from pg. 4

Address: Virginia Department of Elections.

1100 Bank Street, First Floor.

Stick to the issues The best candidate is not necessarily the one with the biggest campaign war chest. Resist the temptation to be swayed by the flashiest signs or the best slogan. Pay more attention to the candidates’ answers on tough questions.

HANOVER – Voters may have an issue sometimes with waiting in line on Election Day or a malfunction with equipment, but you’ll never hear any complaints about the officer in charge of those responsibilities.

Teresa “Teri” Smithson of Beaverdam, who was appointed as the Director of Elections/ General Registrar on Dec. 1, 2010, is probably one of the most pleasant people working at the Hanover County Government Complex.

She is always accessible and ready to help. She also is generous in crediting the dedication of her staff. “They are passionate about protecting and serving the 80,000 voters

in Hanover County’s 37 precincts,” Smithson said.

In her position, Smithson reports to Hanover’s Electoral Board, which consists of Robert Barnette Jr. of Mechanicsville as the secretary (D), Louis (Lou) Szari of Mechanicsville as the chair (D) and Michael C. Carter of Ashland as the vice chair (R).

Smithson previously was the Election Systems (VERIS) Helpdesk Analyst at the Virginia Department of Elections (known as ELECT) that serves the State Board of Elections, a position she held for over a year. Before that, she spent seven years with Circuit City Stores Inc., starting out as a customer service representative and working her way up to becoming a Project Manager,

managing multi-million-dollar initiatives.

Smithson married her Patrick Henry High School SMITHSON sweetheart Greg. They have married off their two daughters and now have four grandchildren.

When asked what her favorite pastime, she will tell you it is hanging out with her grandbabies and camping.

Her staff consists of Sheilah Frattini, Deputy Registrar; Caryn Fuerte, Assistant Registrar III; Alexandra Botts, Absentee/Security Specialist; and Patsy Napier, Part-Time Assistant Registrar.

Agriculture is Virginia’s largest private industry. The industries of agriculture and forestry together provide more than 334,000 jobs in the Commonwealth that are critical to our economy,” Dr. Washington said in response to the endorsement.

Dr. Kevin Washington is among 126 candidates that VFBF AgPAC has endorsed for House and Senate seats. Endorsements were made based on the recommendations of local committees of farmers.

“Each of these candidates has demonstrated a clear understanding of the needs and challenges farmers are facing and/or have proven their support through their favorable voting records while holding positions in the General Assembly. We believe these candidates will help agriculture and forestry maintain its vitality as the number one industry in Virginia,” said Wayne F. Pryor, chairman of VFBF AgPAC and VFBF president. “We look forward to working with them in the 2020 Virginia General Assembly.”

The non-partisan VFBF AgPAC was created by Farm Bureau in 1999 and employs in-kind contributions to support candidates who can best support agriculture and Farm Bureau issues. A full list of candidates endorsed by the committee can be viewed online at vafb.com About Dr. Kevin Washington Dr. Kevin Washington works for VITAS as an information technology cloud architect. He is a veteran of the United States Army and served a combat tour in Iraq. While in the Army, he completed his Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctorate degrees. He lives in New Kent with his wife, LaToya, and their three children. Kevin is running for the House of Delegates to expand rural access broadband and job opportunities in HD-97.

Take steps to make Election Day free of delays, problems Election Day gives voters throughout the United States a chance to participate in their government. The right to vote is something to cherish, as many people across the globe do not get a chance to elect the officials who govern their countries.

While Election Day is an exciting time, voters may find it frustrating if they do not take steps to ensure things go smoothly when they head to the polls. The following tips can help voters prepare for Election Day. Confirm your polling location. Polling locations may have changed since last year, and voters who have moved in the past 12 months may now have to vote in a new location. Voters can contact their local board of elections or visit www.Vote411.org to confirm the correct polling locations. Voters should also learn the hours when the polls are open so they do not arrive too early or

6B

too late to vote.

Bring photo identification. Voter identification laws vary by state, but voters who want to avoid hassles or holdups may be able to do so by bringing current photo identification with them to the polling place. While such identification is not necessarily a requirement, voters who bring along a driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license or state identification card may get in and out of the polling place more quickly than those who do not.

Confirm registration. Voters can confirm that they have registered to vote by contacting their local board of elections in advance of Election Day. Sometimes votersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; names may not appear on the registration list when they arrive to vote, even if they previously registered. Poll workers can help voters who find themselves in such situations. But voters who want to avoid such

A Special Supplement to The Mechanicsville Local & Ashland-Hanover Local October 23, 2019

hassles on Election Day can confirm their registration beforehand.

Be familiar with the candidates and issues on the ballot.

Voting is a privilege and a responsibility, so voters should familiarize themselves with the candidates and issues on the ballot in the weeks leading up to Election Day. In addition to national or statewide candidates and issues, voters should learn about local issues that may have a more direct impact on their daily lives. The more voters learn about the candidates and issues in advance, the more quickly they can cast their votes and get to work or return home.

Voting on Election Day is a privilege that voters should not take lightly. Taking certain steps in the weeks ahead of Election Day can make it easier for voters to cast their ballots.
