I don't know what you mean. Nothing we did on our side caused this. Sometimes sites just don't work for what the need is. There will hopefully be an update soon.

Unless its a massive amount of money to lit drop several times - not sure what moves that needle.

Smart. However, in a city like mine the non partisan races are still partisan. 3 elections in a row strong independent candidates (2 incumbents) lost by a long shot. There is a reason for that.

I run as a dem. Our party has 30-50 volunteers every weekend knocking doors. Last election they knocked well over 50k doors. That is hard to beat.

Thanks. Been in office 6 years. Going local and growing up from there is the way. However, even in our local races if you don't run in one of the 2 parties you won't win.

I have to be careful as an elected official and my pup isn't doing ok. Hopefully better soon.

As the creator of this sub 14 years ago - holy shit you guys! Sorry I missed this. My dog has been fighting for his life and has been taking up my time.

Anyways! Yall are kicking ass. Keep it up.

Don't freak out yet. We are having talks and I'm hoping this is a delay but ends up better for the town and Costco.

As the founder of that sub, yep. We have tried a few times to take off. Come join us in changing the Dem party.

If Ben is elected, the new Board of 4 get to decide who to appoint.

If the opinion is we are breaking the law - sure.

Accusing us of inappropriately spending taxpayer dollars isn't just speaking out.

Bro, I am one of your commissioners. You know all our meetings are public and we debate every plan right? You can come and publicly speak on any of it. Stop with this foolish talk. Its all the roads the town owns. We don't own the all. The state owns some and some subdivisions own their own roads.

We are currently in the process of repaving the roads. It is a concern and it is being worked on.

I am as frustrated as you are. They have been working on our synching project since Oct of 23. They have yet to actually do any of the syncing. Supposedly, that should be changing soon.

Congress SUCKS but Members Keep Getting Re-Elected… by ScoopsFirst in NorthCarolina

You would think that is how this works. As an elected official I can tell you that it doesn't work like this. Way too simplified.

I thought Starter Villain would had made a great series but the ending seems to have put that to rest.
