Primary election ballots (were) mailed this Wednesday and we in Black Diamond have the opportunity to select among three candidates for mayor. In my view, one candidate stands head and shoulders above the others: Keith Watson.

Keith is a proven leader — chairman of the Planning Commission, president of the Black Diamond Historical Society and Black Diamond Community Center president. A dedicatedgo-to guy in our community. Keith is a uniter and not a divider and our city desperately needs someone right now capable of bringing our community together.

Please join me in electing Keith Watson mayor of Black Diamond and restore trust and faith in our community’s future for us all.
