Today's one-liner: "The shortest way to the distinguishing excellence of any writer is through his hostile critics." Richard LeGallienne
At last night's meeting of NorCo Council, Executive Lamont McClure reported that the Department of State has approved the county's ballot format. After that, the ballots were printed and received on Wednesday. He expects there to be over 45,000 MIB applications by Friday morning.
McClure indicated that MIBs are now being mailed to voters who requested them.
You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
They are also being mailed to those who didn't request one. Not sure why I received one. Have never voted by mail, ever. I'm sure the County will provide a timely answer to my inquiry.
ReplyDeleteMIBs are NOT being sent to those who did not request them. What you likely received, if you actually did receive anything, was an application for a MIB. Those are sent out by numerous groups trying to increase turnout. Stop spreading misinformation.
ReplyDeleteTime to remember the best voting advice I have heard — Voting isn’t marriaige - it’s public transport. You are not waiting for “the one” who is absolutely perfect. You are getting the bus. And if there isn’t one going exactly to your destination, you don’t stay at home and sulk - you take the one going closest to where you want to be.
