What is the consensus of the board on how she has done since being elected? I don’t live in Starkville and have not visited lately except for the Arkansas series. Anything good or bad? I see her RT and comment on things that I don’t necessarily agree with, but the most important thing to me is that she do positive things pertaining to growing Starkville and make it a more attractive place for students, visitors, and businesses.

She's liberal but it appears to me she is engadged and trying to improve things

which trumps* being liberal. I'd say she is doing a great job.

I think she's done a really good job so far, especially considering some of the aldermen she has to deal with.

I’m a conservative and while I don’t agree with some of her views, I feel that she’s done a good job so far.

If you can tell what a mayor's political views are by how they run the city, he/she is probably a grandstanding jackass. If you are city of a major metropolitan area, maybe you have the bandwidth to implement partisan policies, but for non-major metropolitan cities, it is mostly a non-partisan endeavor and about actual executive/administrative/management skills.

Her political views are made pretty clear on Twitter but again she is doing

a good job.

Lynn Spruill whoops *** at being mayor. That’s why she’s been it of two different cities. Also this is going to be great for the city:

Nice to hear someone is trying to move Starkville along. Feels like while MSU has really progressed with things over the past few decades that Starkville has always been very slow to progress with the University. Hopefully that is changing with new leadership. If Starkville could just add a few more entertainment and shopping venues around it would really make MSU an even more attractive place to go to school and Starkville a much more attractive place to live.

Spruill was like the first female Naval Aviator in history to get carrier qualified. Quite an achievement. She also flew for Delta for about 20 years.

Don't be so intolerant. Having a JD is ok as long as she is doing a good job.
