Chester County Election Results

Delaware County Election Results

Not sure of which county you live in, but both had the questions on the ballot.

Delco doesn't give a shit what you think, or what the rest of the state thinks.

You guys still voting with the punch cards over there? Maybe they ran out of room ... it was a tight fit to get all the crap on to the computers in Montco.

Radar, imagine if you had spent a little dough though...even just for some flyers...you could very well have won that water board seat.
I think you're right. If the next highest contender had 289 votes less that were in my direction I'd have won a seat. It wouldn't have cost me much to have won that race. I suppose next time I'll spend a few bucks and take more advantage of free press. This time I had an opportunity to get on the local cable television news to do an interview, but I wasn't able to attend. Next time I will do better.

Local cable news will not get you those votes.

Well, look at what exposure to your views has done for Cellarites. Think they would elect you?

Only if they wanted the job done well and government reduced in size, scope, cost, and intrusiveness.

I think I'd do pretty well in an election where the voters were only the people on this board.

Sorry Radar, they would probably void my vote. They just "excused" me from jury duty.

He's often a prick and I'd vote for him. We need a lot less cooperation in government. Dems cooperate with Reps and vice versa, if I ever see someone who isn't a statist on my ballot he has my vote.
