I agree that the same people who complain “continue to vote for the same administration year after year”
But in our town over the last several years there essentially was no choice (for either the complainers or the people who are content).
Except for this past election, which had two Republican challengers for Council, the administration has basically run unopposed.
Nobody ran against the mayor last time out and in 2004 there were no other candidates for council except for the present administration.
I've been a registered Democrat for close to 35 years and don't think that this is healthy.
For things to work the way our forefathers envisioned them, we need a system of checks and balances (for oversight at the very least).
I tend to be a stick in the mud and generally don't embrace change too well, but I think it's really needed in our town.
Even if somebody else runs and then fails at least then we will know what kind of job the present administration has done.
If we keep we repeating the same thing over and over then we have no shot at improving ourselves.
Just my two-cents and thanks for letting me rant a little.
