By CHARLIE MCCLAINSpecial to the Nelson County Gazette To my niece There’s a photo, recently posted on my social media. Well, technically, its two photos side by side. On the left is a photo of a young man, circa 2009, cloaked in his graduation gown and hell bent on taking the next steps of life […]
To the editor, Showing Lee Watts’s video about Andy Stone is another example of Jim Brooks’ obvious bias towards Candy Massaroni. I feel I’m not alone in my viewpoint. By the way, Lee Watts lost in his election. Michael WheatleyBardstown Editor’s Note: The video referred to here was a snippet from Lee Watts’ own YouTube […]
Due to my illness over the last several months, I have not communicated as much as I would have liked to the citizens of Nelson County. Day-to-day responsibilities and planning for future projects in Nelson County have been extremely time-consuming. But I said that I would communicate and be transparent to the citizens of Nelson […]

To the editor, Andy Stone’s tactics and rhetoric throughout his campaign are unacceptable. Recent mailers paid for by Mr. Stone, with graphical misrepresentation of Candy’s image, lies, and his verbal assaults during debates have ended my silence. I wonder how he would respond if someone treated his wife the way he has mine. I believe […]

Candy Massaroni. During the local candidate debates, […]
To the editor, If I could vote in the May Primary, I would vote for Candy Massaroni. I am the senior president of the Thomas Nelson Jr. Society of the Children of the American Revolution, an organization based on the lineage of a veteran of the Revolutionary War.
