Smith Accused of Breaking Faith in Carbondale Mayor Battle
Friends of Robert Carter claim Frank Smith, the harmony candidate, pledged support to Carter but used Carter campaign plans for his own gain. They say Smith could have been nominated for city controller but now faces withdrawal from the Republican field. They argue the circulating Smith petition misrepresents public sentiment and that Smith is a substitute for a faction doomed to defeat.
