    Bobbi Hopp: Slow Down and Listen

    Early voting is already underway in Jackson County, and the race for County Commissioner Chair is heating up. On this episode of the Black Rabbit Collective, Steve sits down with Bobbi Hopp to get past the talking points and find out who is actually looking to lead our community. Bobbi brings a unique perspective to the porch. After nearly twenty years as a civilian engineer for the Navy, Bobbi is used to being called in to fix systems that are broken or over budget. We dive into the ongoing library controversy, the lack of transparency in local government, and why Bobbi believes the current leadership is making major decisions without all the facts. Beyond the politics, we talk about the human side of service. Bobbi shares personal stories about advocating for special needs students, the reality of living as a trans neighbor in the mountains, and the importance of leading with kindness. If you’re tired of the division and want to hear from a candidate focused on "righting the ship" for the working class, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss. In this episode: The "Fix-it" mindset from the Navy to the County Commission. Why your vote matters in a race decided by just a few hundred people. Finding common ground through community events and mutual respect. Addressing the digital divide and tourism spending in Jackson County.
