7-8-25: Day 2 Of Filing

Tune in here to this ​Tuesday's edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!

Breaking Brett Jensen kicks the show off by discussing the start of election filing week and his firm rule on candidate interviews. He explains that he refuses to conduct long-form interviews with anyone claiming they intend to run for office until they officially file with the State or County Board of Elections. Citing past experiences where candidates changed their minds or political ambitions mid-race, Jensen highlights the case of Mark Walker as an example and draws a parallel to recent headlines involving Tijuana Brown and the likelihood of plea deals. 

Later, Jensen interviews Dale Dalton, the longtime Mayor Pro Tem of Mint Hill, who officially filed to run for mayor earlier that day. With over a decade of service on the town commission, Dalton discusses his goals for preserving Mint Hill’s small-town charm while managing its rapid growth. He emphasizes the importance of holding firm against increased housing density and resisting pressure from developers looking to alter the town’s comprehensive plan.
