friend called me last night and told me about all of the hullabaloo going on. wow.
Kinda sad to see it end like that for him. I obviously don't know the inner workings of running a city, but San Angelo has grown more in the last 6-8 years than I ever remember it so it seems like he did a good job and was obviously well liked enough to win 4 times.

J.W. Lown has left his position as mayor of San Angelo to pursue a personal relationship.
Lown said in a telephone call late Wednesday afternoon from Mexico that he has started a relationship with someone who does not have legal status in the United States.
Lown said he did not want to take the oath of office knowing he was “aiding and assisting” someone who was not a citizen.
“I made the final decision when I knew it was the right decision to make for me and my partner and our future — and for the community,” he said.
The mayor declined to identify the person.
“I don’t want to give his name,” Lown said.
