I've talked to Joann Demonbreune and Ralph Cossey, the subjects of the third YNN At-Large Candidate video, a couple of times; Ralph more than JoAnn. They both seem to me intelligent and sincere people. Ms Demonbreune makes two important points in her brief appearance: it's really important that Killeen people get involve in Killeen matters; and you will get the government you deserve. I'm going to seek out JoAnn for conversation. She doesn't seem to have a campaign web site.
Ralph Cossey has run for office (District 4 -- he almost beat Ernest Wilkerson) before. His calmness comes across in this video, but perhaps not his perceptiveness. I think Ralph may be one of the smartest people running for an at-large seat, but he still hasn't presented a clear agenda. (Ralph isn't alone in that; none of the other candidates have done so, either.) Ralph has a campaign site on Facebook. You may have to click "Like".
This video should make you curious about both candidates. Your curiosity may be satisfied at the Exchange Club candidate forum (there's still no web site for it: are you listening, Dick Young?) on April 9, from 1800 to 2100.
