Lincoln City Primaries -excuses
jFader:
Looked like a very promising primary for Stebbing! I could have swore the news had him around 10,000 & the incumbent around 12,000 votes? That is closer than I was expecting....maybe Lincoln is ready for a new leader!

I am not resident of Lincoln, but do have a business here. It is sad how destructive the mindset of the residents is here. To be clear, I mean the ones who vote FOR (and unfortunately elect) a dysfunctional city government. The ones who vote FOR a "bankrupt from the start" arena project and NOW another tax.
I read an article recently by the founder of BIZCO. They recently relocated their HQ to Florida because of the rotten state income tax. His example of a high income $300K paying $21K in state income taxes figured out to almost $500K for the "privilege" of living in this rotten tax environment. Granted most of us don't make that type of income, but go figure out your own screwing by the state and local taxes .... The Good Wife and I decided long ago we are out of here for our retirement years. (Rant over)

The high taxes would have driven me out of the state if I didn't have obligations tying me here; when those have been completed I'll be gone like the last bit of snow in the spring.
Anyone who has or might have an excuse for not voting should make it a point to get on the absentee voter list so voting can be done from home at your convenience. We should make that known to anyone likely to vote as a patriot.
Lincoln has had a liberal bigot in the mayor's office as long as I've lived here. No surprise I guess since the state government and university are both here. But considering the low turnout for these elections a big enough turnout by patriots could carry an election. So I guess we have our work cut out for us if we want a loyal American elected mayor.
It's beyond my understanding why people who are already overtaxed would vote for more tax. Maybe they forget that these things are always increased in baby steps. Or maybe they're just been programmed to love the feel of their masters' leash.

I'll be interested to see what kind of numbers they end up with.

24 % of registered voted. Sad

Well, we almost had as good of a voter turnout as ferguson: 29%
Im betting that more than 29% of residents turned out to protest...
