Georgiana Vines in today’s Knoxville News Sentinel reports that Karen Carson intends to keep the School Board and State Legislative position (if she beats Jason Zachary) on Wednesday. Commissioner John Schoomaker told me at the debate that the Conmissioners have agreed that whoever wins the Primary on Wednesday the County Commission will appoint in August. Meaning the paycheck begins immediately.

Carson is running to be Governor Haslam’s rubber stamp. Her record of being a rubber stamp for Superintendent Lindsey and McIntyre is perfect.
