If the topic you feel is MOST important in the next LOCAL election is not present, you may “reply” to this poll with your own topic.  The results of this poll will be forwarded directly to candidates for local office.

Believe me, I understand.  Of course we all would love to see a candidate who can tackle all these issues.  Governing is prioritizing.  When funding is short, it helps to see where the people want their money spent first.  At least we’re looking for candidates that want to actually hear from the people they will be governing!  Something different, in other words!

The most important, not on the list, is honesty. I can tolerate many differences in opinion between me and a public official, if the official is honorable. So far, I see this in a very few local officials. In the others it is grossly lacking.

Wolf- HONORABLE ?? I can’t see the honor in any of the elected officals…. maybe you can show me under what rock you are peeking ... ?
