Greg Pound on the Patch Podium: Shaping Drug Laws
Each of the Pinellas County sheriff candidates took a moment on the Patch Podium to explain — in his own words — what the sheriff's role should be in shaping laws for prescription pain pills and other "legal highs."
Each week, we're asking each of the Pinellas County sheriff candidates a question that's important to you, the voter, so you can be informed come ballot time.

Let us know what issue you'd like to hear about from the sheriff's candidates! You can either participate in the poll below to help us finalize our last question or suggest one of your own. We'll use your input to ask about issues you care about most.
