Day 24 #theMCIMAPSarchives

I will summarize. Finch worked to help a man keep guns he did not have a license for. This actually led to Rick Scott suspending him for a time in 2014

Finch would eventually be reinstated - but the man he helped would shoot and kill a man in 2016

And that tanked him
While Eddie Joe White would return Liberty to the Democrats (granted a very conservative democrat) - that would only last one term. In 2020, Liberty elected local republicans for the first time in its history
