Review by-Jarrett Leahy Jacksonville, TX is a sleepy little East Texas town located thirty miles south of Tyler, TX. Best known for their tomatoes (and what seems like the near constant rustle and moan of the freight trains that barrel through the center of town every hour, day and night), it would seem that Jacksonville would be one of the last places you’d find a progressive, forward-looking mayoral election. But last year, when an outgoing, gay restaurant owner and a young African-American political science graduate decided to run again the good ol’ boy incumbent, this small Texas town became a metaphor for the ever-changing landscape of the country.
