Seems Ms Hughes likes to give the taxpayers money away.

Until one walks in Ms Hughes shoes, don't be so quick to judge.

No one is judging 7:38. Just stating facts. Learn the difference. If Ms Sample feels raises are needed then by all means she should get out HER checkbook and start writing checks. She needs to put HER money where HER mouth is. But being the typical irresponsible democrat, when it's not HER money she votes across the board to spend spend spend without even the slightest concern about what a great disservice she is doing to the next generation.
Her live for the day attitude is what has ruined this country. She would benefit greatly from some forward thinking training.

I did not judge, I clearly said the word "seems" and that conclusion would be based on her vote to give taxpayer money away.
A voting record can be very revealing.

Just remember that when you see Hughes name on the next ballot she is planning to run for. Better yet remember this...DO NOT VOTE FOR ANY DEMOCRAT!!They all think alike! Spend Spend, Tax Tax

7:52-Black voters will overwhelming vote for her just because she is black. No concern whatsoever for what these liberal attitudes have done to the black communities. Quite a few are not fit to live in-havens of crime and poverty. But they don't learn from history and the area is showing the results.

Sample-Hughes is nothing more than Rick's puppet on the council.

One of the most troubling deals last night was Prettyman was allowed to vote by phone. Attending a meeting by phone is wrong. It isn't allowed in Washington, Annapolis and it shouldn't be allowed in Wicomico County. Let's write an addendum to the charter that prohibits it from happening.

Skype would be more appropriate. At least then an identity can be established.

That is Matt Holloway that voted for the raise.

I remember when the city council wouldn't let CT Webster vote by phone from his hospital bed here in Salisbury. Thanks for the voting results. Hughes solo vote shows her judgment with the money of the taxpayers. She's the only council member that voted yes for a raise for HERSELF! POS

To 9:28, I'm no supporter of Sheree, but she didn't vote to give herself a raise. If the raise were approved, it would go into effect with the members of the county council elected this year. Since Sheree is running for delegate, she wouldn't have been on the council when this raise would have taken effect.

Sample-Hughes voting for a raise for herself - what a POS - People you see how she voted last night - now can you just imagine how votes would go in Annapolis - THINK before you vote and do not vote Democrat.
