My latest District 2 poll has closed.
Of course, one has to discount the votes for Smith by at least 50% because of the usual vandalous poll queering by sour grapes Thuggies. Otherwise, the results are rather interesting.
I think it highly likely that we will see new commissioners in both Districts 2 and 4 in 2010 (well, actually, January 1, 2011).

Jay remember the conversation we were having back and forth about two weeks ago about Principal Bird. Well Rick is reporting on his blog she will NOT be returning.
I know. I sent Rick a heads-up on that a few days ago when I found out the BOE was looking for two principals. I figured that was more his beat. I have no idea why she is not returning. I'm sure she has enough years in to retire, though.
What about Nathan Dean? Brenda Wainright has been pushing him for the past 2 years. I hear he is committed to run. He is a local with a good background that would bring a sense of the "common man" to the cast of 'neer do wells.
So far, Mr. Dean is one of the fifty thousand or so Camdenians I've never heard of. Please tell us more.
I would note that his being a "local" gains him no points (nor costs him any) with me. So long as he is an American citizen and otherwise qualifies under the law, his birht place is of litle to no interest to me.
If his being a "common man" is code for "has no more than average intelligence; has never pursued a formal education beyond high school but is just 'eat up' with 'common sense'" then he has a high hurdle to jump with me.
Having said all that, I would still like to hear more about why you think the gentleman would make a good county commissioner.
Jay they are both retiring at the end of the year. Thanks for the tip.
You're welcome or as they say on Topix "your welcome."
They may well have both been planning for some time to retire at the end of this year or they may have responded to the school system's request that some with their time in might consider retiring a little earlier than they might have otherwise planned to help them out of the crunch caused by the shortfall of some $8 million in state funds for next year.
