Make sure to vote in city races Tuesday

By Staff
The city campaign season is finally almost over.
Tuesday is the day for us all to go to the polls and cast our vote for our new city leaders.
Months of campaigning will finally end and residents will know who their representatives will be.
There are four city council seats up for grabs in Russellville and the mayor's race in Red Bay has yet to be decided.
This is a critical time in our history and the new governing bodies will have a great deal to say about our future.
It is important to cast our votes in all elections, especially this one.
Though there is no mayoral seat on the ballot in Russellville, voters still need to get to the polls.
Now is not the time for low voter turnout.
Make sure each one counts toward the man that you want to serve you.
