Wayne and Lisa Woodman have put a butt load of money in the County Executive and Commissioner races this year. This is really all about Woodman. Ott is not smart enough nor does he have the connections to raise the kind of money he has for this race. Woodman is doing this as a means of furthering his agenda in politics.
