determined that the female
suspect in the theft had two
outstanding warrants for her

approximately 5 more grams

Barker Defeats Newsom
for HC Precinct 1 Title
By Cindy Roller
Editor
Following Tuesday night’s
Republican runoff election
Mickey Barker earned the
most votes to be named the
new Precinct 1 Commissioner
in Hopkins County.
“It was an enlightening
experience. I enjoyed meeting
lots of people. This was
definitely a combined effort
- I couldn’t have done this
without the help of my family,
friends and neighbors,” said
Mickey Barker at his election
night watch party with his
wife, Susie of nearly 30
years by his side supporting
him. “I also truly appreciate
the endorsements of [former
opponents] Ray Fouse and Pat
Chase.”
Barker had yet to review
the voting numbers in which
he received 512 votes to his
opponent Maci Newsom’s
314, which are unofficial
until canvassed. He began the
evening with a 72 advantage
with the reporting of early
votes cast. As compared to the
outcome of the Primary where
Newsom finished with 234
more votes than Barker.
“She [Maci] was a great
opponent, very kind. We
really got to know each other
and our families throughout
this process. She is a very
intelligent woman,” said
Barker on the election race.
“I am already making plans to
meet with Beth [Wisenbaker
- who is currently serving as
Commissioner] in the next
few months. With her help this
will be an easy transition. We
are very blessed to be living in
Hopkins County.”
Barker noted while his
biggest projects will be road
conditions, he intends to
address jobs and several other
issues. He welcomes any input
from the public. He will take
office on Jan. 1, 2017.
