‘Tis the season for Florida’s lobbyists and politicians
Historic City News scours the web at the close of each year to find some bit of editorial prose to entertain our core subscriber base, that being those politicos, lobbyists, elected and appointed officials of local government who seem hellbent on dancing between the raindrops to deliver us another session of Legislative pork while managing not to lose their jobs.
Guest Column: It’s November 19, 2024: What’s next?
Ed Slavin
St Augustine, Florida
It’s morning in St Johns County, America. We are happy that on Tuesday, November 19, 2024, three reform Commissioners will become a 60% majority on our St Johns County Board of County Commissioners. Clay Murphy and Ann Taylor will join reformer Krista Keating Joseph. Three cheers! As President Theodore Roosevelt would say, we’re “delighted!”

ENDORSEMENT: Anastasia Mosquito Control EDWARD A SLAVIN
This is the day Historic City News readers thought they would never see. The day pigs fly. The day Hell freezes over. But, nonetheless, that day is upon us – not because it’s “about time”, but rather because “the time is right”. In the open Anastasia Mosquito Control District 1 race, the Historic City News Editorial Review Board has chosen to recommend Ed Slavin for election to that seat.
ENDORSEMENT: Anastasia Mosquito Control GARY H HOWELL SR
Selecting Gary Howell for the Anastasia Mosquito Control District (Seat 5) was the easiest endorsement decision to come before the Historic City News Editorial Review Board this election year. Gary has been a part of this community as long as us. We know what to expect from his contribution as a commissioner.

Historic City News readers, Please share
Judge Kenneth Janesk, of the Seventh Judicial Circuit of Florida, just ruled on a lawsuit brought against Nicole Crosby, “the Anns” handler/campaign manager/marketing advisor. The lawsuit (type in case #CA24-0665), brought by Plaintiff James Higbee, alleges defamation of his character in social media and says that the defamation had a direct impact on his career.
