District 3 Democratic Candidate Staci Appel’s campaign stop at the Stuart Country Kitchen restaurant Friday morning was brief, so brief, in fact, that it was over seven minutes before it was scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. The visit entailed Appel speaking to a single table of constituents who were later identified as Republicans, before leaving the restaurant with her staff. Appel did not speak to any members of the media during her Stuart stop.
