Many of us on this list know each other, some know just a few.
The critical issue, to me, is that I would like to encourage everyone to
exercise their right to vote in tomorrow's election. Municipal elections
have poor turn out and it is on this level that we can most readily
affect our government. Each of us can contact our councilor or Mayor and
have impact on the issues. That first impact is first felt in the voting
booth.
Many of us on this list are active in the community. And we will
disagree. What is wonderful about our system is that we can disagree and
then meet at Tierneys, The Office or Cafe Eclectic and have a good time
around our common ground.
Whoever wins tomorrow, they know that they will have my support, and
Mary's and Joyce's as we all confront the issues that are important to
us. Decisions in local elections are difficult, we know the candidates
as our neighbors and friends. And it should be clear (I think I can
speak for mary here) that we do not view any candidate in a bad way,
they are all dedicated volunteers who have contributed countless hours
to the greater good. I personally thank every candidate for their work,
past, present and future.
Please vote tomorrow, everyone should have received a sample ballot, if
you do not know where your polling place is located, call the township
clerk's office at 509.4900
I should have attached a .WAV file of Kate Smith singing "God Bless
America"
