Curtains For Joe Gale

It appears that "The Swamp" has gotten the best of  Republican Minority County  Commissioner, Joe Gale, and that he will not win a third term. Gale trailed the second-place candidate (two candidates will be placed on the November ballot), Tom DiBello, after all the mail votes were counted, by about 1,200 votes.

Through his design firm, he worked across an unusually wide range of industries—transportation, consumer products, branding, and architecture—often simultaneously. No one in history is more closely associated with […]
