Jeremy Chancey
So, What are you going to do for the city. What is your platform Just critiquing the incumbent doesn’t get my vote
Earl Truman
Negative coalitions are easy to assemble, getting them to offer positive policies for change and work together is much more difficult.
I am not a big businessman, and all of my business has been based or operated from Plant City. I do not know his challenger, but I vote for Mr. Jones based on personal experience with him even when we disagree.
Ed Verner
So here is my take on the current election and why I have decided to back Camryn Henry over Jason Jones. The current state of your City is in shambles, not just the Fire Department but the whole City of Plant City. I believe Jason is big personality that makes everyone in a room like him and feel a connection with him. He has obviously made quite a few friends with some of the city’s “big wigs”. But in his tenure on the City Commission, Jason has not made Plant City better for it’s citizens. There’s a reason all of his sponsors and supporters are the big business owners of the City (most of which don’t live in the City). We need a change in this City. Jason has shown up to support the Fire Department when cameras are around and when he has had a crowd to speak to. Each year when it comes time to make a change and challenge what’s sitting in front of him; he has stayed silent and voted with the rest of the committee. The City does NOT need another yes man on the City Commission, we need someone who isn’t afraid to ask the challenging questions and take a stand for the citizens and the employees of Plant City. I have personally witnessed Camryn be that person. She has stood up at City Commission meetings and asked those challenging questions. That is why I have put my faith in her. That is why I encourage every one of you to do the same. This can be the start of change our City needs.

This can be our single step.

This election is so important for us that live in Plant City! It’s not about who’s your friend but who is going to make a change, someone who will have the courage to stand up to the development and support our First Responders and Farmers! I’ve been to City Commission meetings and from what I’ve seen, it doesn’t matter what the citizens say, they still do what the developers want. Sad. Plant City has changed so much in the last few years.
Nancy Medina
Yes, for the candidate who is actually making themselves available to the people, Camryn Henry!
Pete Murphy
Yes. And I’ve encouraged friends to vote however they choose.
Meg Scott
Due to the unacceptable Pedicini style false mailers and smear campaigns from Jones’s campaign pac affiliations without Jason renouncing these tactics leads me to question his judgement and ethics along with my disappointment in my City’s direction I am voting for Camryn Henry outside of party affiliation.
Sailor Mike
I don’t live in the city so I am unable to vote. If I could I would for sure vote for Jason !! He is an amazing man and loves this city and his family !!
Amy Trinkle Greene
