pretty novel that you have your own poll as to who the mayor could be. I had not voted in your poll but believe your poll is fairly accurate based on whats going on around town. It shows the GOP far ahead of the Dem incumbant which is interesting. GW365, if you are reading this may I make a suggestion on your blog but only if what I note is true and it may be too late in the game anyway. Can you vote more than once for the candidate? If some GOPPper is logging in and voting multiple times, that may be the reason why we see quatrocchi so far ahead. You should note in your blog you are only allowed to vote once. Political operatives do shifty things sometimes.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise I like your blog a lot.
