Mayor Broome’s Fund Raising Sponsors

Why would a business be associated with Mayor Broome’s re-election find raiser (Hollingsworth Automotive Group) given her track record? I guess I can understand CSRS (city contracts) but a car dealership?

Because she is going to easily waltz into a 3rd term

They’re placing their bets that she’ll win and show them continued favoritism. She has no real opponents despite being terrible

I bet she does something really dumb like trying to tax the rain this term.

Yep but she has done a horrible job, she sued St George, she got booed off the podium at the LSU championship celebration, etc. Why publicly hook your wagon to that train when you are trying to sell Ford’s and Honda’s?

Those people are supporting Broome because the alternative is probably worse
As bad as she is those people still have influence over her and they might not get that same treatment from a new mayor
Gotta protect their interests

They probably see it as supporting the City more than her per se. idk

Probably hoping to score a dodge dealership and start slinging chargers.

Lotsa Mustang GTs to be sold to the street racing voting block.
Did the Mopar dealers (Hellcat/SRT group) chip in too?

Don’t forget her plan built on lies to raise taxes for her storm water plan.
Don’t forget how she undercut the police immediately after she took office and the thugs took over the streets.

Because that's the way it works.
After an election, there is always a fundraiser for those who supported the losing candidate to come bend the knee and add some dollars to the winning candidate's pot too.
Thats why politicians don't gaf about most regular people. They do for those who will pay them.

Hollingsworth Ford is a shite dealership with shady practices. They took five days to do an oil change on my car before. Think they lost it. That is until a coworker of mine had her vehicle definitely lost by them for like 37 days.
They have also lied to me in the service department about what was covered under warranty and what wasn’t. I had to go walk to the salesman who sold this vehicle to get that tune to change.
And then another time, we were told a price for repair including labor and part. Get there, and the bill is almost four hundred dollars more. When questioned, he takes the invoice and comes back twenty minutes later with it “fixed”. “I accidentally had the wrong part item number on it, it was a more expensive part from our truck series”. The only thing that changed was the labor hours…tried to squeeze four more hours into it for nothing.
frick that place. I would suggest nobody go there.
