The woman who leads local Democrats is calling a vote earlier this week by the all-Republican County Board of Commissioners, âa small, petty decisionâ when they declined to appoint a Democrat to the bipartisan county jury commission, and instead left the position vacant.
Judy Daubenmier, who chairs the Livingston County Democratic Party, issued a press release (posted below) following Mondayâs meeting of the county board in which they approved incumbent Nancy Sauvage, a Democrat, and former commissioner Bill Green, a Republican, to the county jury commission, omitting the name of Democrat Dane Morris, despite the fact that all three had been nominated to the panel by Chief Judge Michael Hatty.
