The People Have Spoken!

This may have been an "off" election cycle, but we had some shockers here folks. The referendum questions went pretty much as I had figured. The two gambling questions were bad for Bangor, so no surprise on that, and nobody really cared about the other two questions. I was totally shocked to see that the Bangor dispatchers won the battle and wont loose the center. This makes no sense fiscally. Do people have any idea what they are voting on? For god's sake people, smaaaaahtin up!!

On the Council side I was blind-sided. Never saw that coming, no way in hell. I will say that Rick Bronson looked like a total ass in the Candidate Forum that was held at the library. He was smug and condesending to say the least. To bad for him as he was a good candidate. I will say that all of the candidates were first rate and anyone of them would make a fine Councilor. It's no secret that I like Dave Neally, and I believe the voters screwed up on this one. It should be interesting seeing ol' Professor Gratwick and Pat the Battle Axe duke it out with the newbies.

Looks like PAYT is out the door for now. Praise the lord on that one. Another blow to the Professor. Looks like he's not the smaaaaahtest guy in the City after all. Sorry Geoff, Bangorian's-1, City Council Douche's-0.

Till next time kid's, keep on keepin on!
