[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GOODBYE Marc Elrich [/quote] So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye GOODBYE!!!! [/quote] Not so fast…. Results are getting closer and closer[/quote] Down to a 100 vote margin [/quote] Refresh the page. Blair is up by 400 now. Still tiny, but at least (for me) it's the right direction. [/quote] 500 now. [/quote] Early Vote was strongly Blair. Election Day vote was marginally Blair. The mail in ballots might skew towards Elrich [b]because he’s more popular with older voters[/b] who are more likely to vote by mail. In any case it’s going to be close and it would not have been except for Riemer. [/quote] Maybe it's because I'm in my 50s, but what do you mean with older voters? Like Leisureworld voters? Or my age? :D[/quote] Elrich has proven to be very popular with retirees who are the most reliable voters and most likely to vote by mail. [/quote] My retiree parents switched from I to D so they could vote by mail for Blair.[/quote] +1 exactly me, 52 yrs old. ^explains why retirees like Elrich -- they don't care about schools or economic growth in the county.[/quote] This is true, but Hans Riemer enacted policies that stripped critical capital funding from schools and gave it directly to developers as a subsidy. He also removed capacity constraints on overcrowding at the same time. It’s one thing not to be concerned about schools and quite another to work to actively destroy them when they are our only regional comparative advantage. [/quote]
