    Wow, it sure got quiet...

    The WS forum sure slowed down today.

    It seems nobody wants to tell where the $$ for the "Vote No" campaign came from. Nor do they want to make a stink about the guy sitting in the doorway while representing the "Vote No" side, yet they want to talk about a supposed infraction by KG.

    What gives?

    Human nature. It sad isn't it. Pot calling the kettle black along with hypocrites left and right.

    Just look at woody. Kevin was too close... YET we got a photo of the no man with a shirt and sign on no more than 10 feet from the door. If you are going to yell about Kevin, yell about the other man to.

    I did answer that question as best I could ( http://www.speakupwny.com/forums/sho...9&postcount=30 ). I do not have any more details because I did not deal with the money end, but if you want to come to our next meeting I am sure your questions will be answered.

    Secondly the election inspectors placed a marker at each location indicating the point that electioneering within is prohibited. At Winchester they had two stakes with signs on each side of the parking lot. These markers were actually approximately 20 feet from the entrance so it appears that the inspectors were measuring from the interior entrance to the room that the voting booths were located in.

    You know what though? It make no dam difference. Way more people are sick of the **** that is going on and that's why there were way more yes votes than no votes.

    With less seats to control a town board it will be easier to take control from the current political group basically controlled by labor special interest groups.

    I don't think so Res, how would it be easier. In Cheektowaga the Dems are in control, now they elect 1 or 2 at at time instead of 3 or 4. The Dems will still hold the power.
    If it weren't for the United States Military, there would be NO United States of America !

    isn't kevin gaughan the biggest interest group? threats and intimidation bought votes for yes. bias media reporting and radio not giving anyone opposing a chance to speak. kevin gaughan going into polling place and illegally campaigning will never be answered.

    I commend people like Kevin Gaughan that speakup and take action. He was able to change parts of a system that everyone put up road blocks to stop.

    Hopefully it will spread and infect the rest of the county and eventually the state.

    FYI, I did attend Ebenezer school.
