This is a contest where I feel both candidates are questionable. In 2010, Ms. Pugliese was behind the effort to keep the teaching of global warming out of Mesa County classrooms. She has neen quoted as saying “Global warming is not a proven scientific theory. There is no evidence to support it.” Mr. Edwards revealed his ignorance of history when criticizing the swastika on the John Otto stone that was recently vandalized. Both statements by these candidates have me questioning their knowledge and intelligence. Can’t we do better?
