...nor will I vote this coming Tuesday. Not a single person on my ballot was worth a damn and I'm not about to enable political idiots who claim to be conservatives while they nickle and dime me to death every time they meet in legislative session.

Who else is sitting this one out?? Discuss.

I vote any third party for Federal elections.

My hubby and I donate, advertize, and campaign for local candidates for commissioner, sheriff, assessor, etc. National politicians can screw you, but local politicians can really screw you. All local politics are dirty, but we are Landlords on the side and we really need the local politicians. We go to meetings, protest, and put ads in the newpaper when they try to slip something by, and every couple of years we get out our lawyers and sue someone. We also have hosted a couple of large public protest forums against property taxes, annexation, and corrupt TIF districting which attract TV stations and politicians. We try hard to be enough of a pain in the ass that they avoid hurting us.

Welcome aboard.

Years ago, a friend and I decided to dive into local and state politics within the county, non profit, non partisan, our motto was, Pub or Dem, if you are in office you need to get an honest job somewhere else.

Needless to say, we became public enemies on all sides, only the citizens liked us. To demonstrate to people that party meant NOTHING, we ran a pub and a dem together for County Commissioner and won both seats.

One corrupt incumbent we threw out was my nephew, hehehehehe.

He is now a Judge, sigh. My partner and I both grew too olde to fight the good fight anymore, so once more the criminals are in for life terms.

Citizens never learn. We tried.
