Everyone in politics in Memphis should be investigated. They not only made it harder for write-ins,as they were leaving they voted themselves raises everytime the state employees get a raise. They also increased the retired governors pension from 35,000 to 77,000 per year. The governors pay also went from 85,000 to 105,000. All this on the last day in session and without fanfare.
