Yes, I broke down and actually marked my slim ballot and returned it this afternoon, as I usually do. I almost didn’t though, just can’t get enthused much over this election.
Being outside city limits as I am, I was left with County Council Chair, County Council District 2 and Port of Vancouver Commissioner.
Sadly, there are far too few viable candidates offered to excite me, even though each seat has multiple people vying for the seat.
By most accounts turnout appears to be very low this time, again. Even the Lazy C and haters at C3G2 are whining about seeing another low voter turnout, both ignoring their culpability in such low turnouts with their extremely biased claims and abject hatred expressed of others they disagree with.
They just don’t get that their heavy one-sidedness and constant haranguing on just a couple of duly elected officials is a real turn off as well as such weak candidates they offer up to replace them, all with the same single minded agenda driven attitudes, contrary to the majority of voters in the county.
As for me, having passed through such extreme smear efforts as was seen last year by some high up in the local R3publican Party and seeing more hate spewed against me personally on C3G2, I just can’t get enthused much about any of them.
Nationally we are seeing the Republicans we gave majorities to in both House of Congress caving left and right to Obama and the Democrats, as if they still controlled everything.
And now Boehner and McConnell can’t understand why we do not support them any longer.
It is much too soon for me to choose a presidential candidate, but I am very wary of Donald Trump and this massive favorability he claims, believing he is mostly tickling people’s ears while setting up a diversionary run to favor the Democrat, likely Hillary Clinton.
Locally, I see much angst as haters over on C3G2 suddenly see their hopes of ousting Madore & Mielke likely being dashed should one of them win in tonight’s primary.
I tried to warn everybody that this charter that they just had to have very well could produce just the opposite of what they wanted and tonight will tell.
For more personal reasons than any other, part of me hopes to see David Madore defeated, but an equal part of me also would like to see him win and we witness Liberal heads over on C3G2 and Lefty Lou at the Lazy C heads explode as they see their hate come back and bite them in their asses.
That last reason is also a large part of why I backed away from exposing what I have documented on Madore, looking forward to see so many leftist heads explode.
Other reasons would include Mayor Tim ‘the Liar’ Leavitt snarky comments to me personally over such documentation.
So it will just remain with me since it will make no difference to me whether he wins or loses.
And no, I didn’t vote for him nor did my wife.
Tonight will tell what happens and whether or not there will be any changes or those willing to vote keeps us pretty much the same.
In the end, we will have the government we deserve.
