Among Hernandez's talking points were the impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on city's saying that the national and state response was met with mixed responses while Ford County saw prosperity due to agriculture and energy sectors, as well as impacts to small businesses such as retail and services.
"When I'm talking about the ag sectors, I'm talking about the mills, the plants, they were able to continuously run throughout this entire pandemic," Hernandez said. "The energy sector in wind energy didn't stop and got it producing energy in this area."
