Dale City, Va. — It appears a Lake Ridge man took the phrase better late than never to heart.
Scott Bell on the eve of the 2011 General Election announced he would be a write-in candidate in the race for Neabsco District Supervisor, representing a portion of Dale City and eastern Prince William County.
Bell, an Independent, is pitted against Democratic Incumbent John Jenkins who has served on the Prince William County Board of Supervisors since 1982, and is the longer serving incumbent on the Board.
“I don’t know what else to say. I’m 40, a nine year veteran of the Air Force and am currently an information technology specialist for the government. I have lived most of the last 15 years in Prince William County and think there’s a good common sense approach to local government, which is where you see the quickest most direct impact to daily lives,” said Bell when asked why he decided to throw his hat in the ring at the last minute. “You can’t do everything all at once and need to be ready to compromise to get the best possible solutions to problems.”
Without a campaign website Facebook is where Bell has turned to the web to tell others what he’s all about. In addition to being a fan of third-party candidates, he’s also a fan of Woodbridge’s Potomac Nationals.
Polls close at 7 p.m.

Travel to French soil and join us for a night filled with two of the most beloved French traditions—no plane ticket required! ?
On January 25th, we invite you to experience the magic of Galette des Rois, a 700-year-old tradition celebrated across France throughout the entire month of January (and even beyond!). This sweet, almond-filled puff pastry topped with a golden crown isn’t just a treat—it’s a celebration! The lucky person who finds the fève (a porcelain charm hidden in one of the slices) becomes the King or Queen for the Day, and don’t worry—there will be plenty of royalty to go around! ??
But that’s not all! In France, Les Voeux (New Year’s wishes) continue throughout January, often accompanied by Champagne and good cheer. We’re bringing that festive spirit to you, with a lively evening packed with French food, wine, and music.
