GOOD STORY

The front page story on county judge candidate Ruben Beccera was balanced reporting at its best.

Kudos to reporter Exsar Arguello and the Hays Free Press and News-Dispatch for shouldering such a story, a monumental undertaking for a weekly newspaper with limited staff.

Your readers and the voters of Hays County owe you a debt of gratitude for keeping them informed of issues critical to the future of their county.
