      I’m trying to get a sense of what ‘the issues’ are based on the candidates’ websites, just seeing the big-picture items they highlight on their platform/priority pages.
      Johnson basically hits the big buckets of county government: improving infrastructure, supporting entrepreneurship, promoting health, and supporting emergency response capabilities. Cochran-Johnson puts here priorities into 9 buckets, getting more specific (but not addressing health as a specific issue), also highlighting housing, government accountability, and youth empowerment. Bradshaw’s list seems idiosyncratic - it mentions crime reduction and business-promotion, but also softer topics like county leadership diversity targets and an anti-littering PR campaign.
      I’ve seen a few Bradshaw yard signs around Decature.
