The often-contested, never-beaten State Rep. Rosita Youngblood may be a little more vulnerable to a primary challenge in 2010. Heard in the Hall reports that Youngblood and Carol Campbell are quits, following a dispute over $10K in cash Campbell routed to Youngblood.
The money was intended to pay Youngblood's poll workers on election day. Campbell and her ally Joyce Eubanks promised these workers $100; Youngblood paid them each $75. What's more, Youngblood was in a room of workers when Eubanks promised them $100, but did nothing to correct or contradict her.
“I was there to hear it, but if you have a roomful of people, it would be a riot if you want to contradict what was stated,” Youngblood said. That left some workers disappointed when they came to collect their checks election night...
“I just hope she enjoys what we did for her while it lasts,” Campbell said. “Because two years comes around mighty fast.”
