Their focus (the Miller's) seems to be One Sumter, a no-kill shelter and sticking it to The Developer.

As a Villager, I don't see the benefit of repealing One Sumter. Maybe I'm missing something, but it looks like repealing One Sumter would potentially give more power to non-Villages portions of Sumter County (depending on if The Villages Sumter would get 3 commissioners or 2).

Another person stated that "Facebook... is a place for self and friends showing off and gratification." I agree. I've noticed that the vast majority of posters in the Oren Miller Sumter County Facebook page are from Southern Sumter County. Those posters are asking for a lot - new roads, a square with entertainment like The Villages, schools like The Villages Charter Schools, a new playground, a pool for kids, etc.
