SUMMARY: Ashby Foote won Jackson’s Ward One City Council race by eight votes, securing a fourth term and beginning his 11th year in office on July 1st. The race took over a week to finalize due to absentee ballots and a ballot mistakenly cast in the wrong ward, which was removed from the count. Foote defeated independent Grace Green and Democrat Jasmine Barnes, who came in close behind. Despite the tight margin, Foote expressed gratitude and confidence, while Green acknowledged the close results and appreciated her supporters. Election officials expect to certify results by the Friday deadline.

SUMMARY: Wellness Wednesday explores the risks of taking too many medications, a condition called polypharmacy, where five or more medicines, including prescriptions, supplements, or over-the-counter drugs, are taken. Dr. Quinn from Mississippi warns that improper monitoring can cause dangerous interactions and side effects, such as liver or kidney failure. Families can prevent this by attending doctor visits with seniors, bringing all medications to appointments, and ensuring one doctor manages the treatment. Using one pharmacy helps pharmacists identify harmful drug conflicts. Communication among doctors, patients, and families is key to safe medication use and avoiding serious health risks.
