Oct 20-Nov 1, 2008 (Mon-Sat, 8:30AM-4:30PM)-Early Voting for General Election

Nov 4, 2008-General Election

Florida is still a Closed Primary State. This means you must be registered in a recognized party to vote that primary ballot. There is an exception to this in that a Universal Primary Contest is when only one party qualifies candidates in a race. When this occurs, that race will appear on all ballots in the County. We have 3 Universal Primary Contests on the August 26th Primary Ballot, Superintendent of Schools, County Commissioner District 3, and County Commissioner District 5. These 3 races will appear on the Democratic, Republican, and Nonpartisan ballots in the Primary. Nonpartisan races will be on all County Ballots.

I'm not seeing any surprises here-

 

[Smiling JOe]

Jdarg, I am very surprised by dist 5 BCC.

Walton County poliTRICKS is in desperate need of an overhaul.

 

[greenroomsurfer]

Looks like the SoWal poll worked!

 

[30A Skunkape]

We all should have known it was coming. When you don't get out the vote in SoWal, and the rest of the county votes -- well, the writing was on the wall with this one. We don't turn out the vote, we have a carpetbagger representing us for four years. Four years of Scott Brannon and Cecelia Jones representing the south part of the county.

Anyone want to explore ways to secede from the county? How 'bout a Sons of Liberty style dumping of tea into the Choctawhatchee Bay to protest taxation without representation?

 

[Smiling JOe]

"you get the gov't you deserve." don't know who said it first, but damn. just damn. time to start bombarding her with emails and letters. I'm not advocating putting poop in anyones driveways or mailboxes. That is probably illegal.

 

[Beachlover2]

I am sorry to all the people I voted for - seems it was the kiss of death. If this trend keeps up I will be apologzing to Obama in a few months

 

[greenroomsurfer]

When Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach and Jacksonville Beach wanted to succeed from Duval County they wanted to call it Ocean County. I still like that name.

You're right I would like secede from this redneck . I don't give a what my taxes would be. This is a sad state of affairs.
