Standard-Examiner Editorial: Ogden Mayor Took City Government Into His Own Hands -Updated

Remember! Ogden City mail-in ballots go out early next week!

Bad news for our beloved Ogden City, according to yesterday's strong and scathing Standard-Examiner editorial.

Seems Ogden's "Mayor Mike" has suddenly gone haywire:

Here's how you accomplish that folks:

Go to our Weber County Forum 2016 Election Candidate Roster page, and prowl through it.

The one thing we need in Ogden City politics, wethinks, is an astute and vigilant Ogden City Council, to keep watch over Mayor Mike.

Remember! Ogden City mail-in ballots go out early next week!
