local elections

[JuliusEbola]

I live in a very small city. They always say it's better to vote local. Last election, every candidate had this generic bullet point book jacket bio that hardly gave any insight into their ideologies. Zero information on the official city website as to their platforms. One guy had some vague platitude about wanting growth but keeping that "small town charm." I did end up voting based on the most superficial of information. What the hell else was I supposed to do, grill them on their facebook page? The whole exercise seemed more pointless than voting federally. What the hell is the point of voting local, if every candidate is afraid of alienating anyone by revealing anything more than a smidge as to where their allegiances lie?

I don’t know fren. Seems voting is fake and gay at all levels. If someone isn’t willing to reveal some serious ‘based’ credentials, even if they aren’t completely retarded, they’ll just fold at the first sign of pressure. We’ve seen this time and time again.

All the local election signs here were jeets. No point in voting.

The locals will usually knock on the door and you can grill them.

If you haven't overheard of a bunch of old women complaining about some local candidate when you're out grocery shopping then none are worth voting for.
