Moonglow - I have a feeling that even if you and I were allowed to vote once every second for the entirety of the election day some things will still not change, because our votes would be negated by the Sheeple who don't think there is anything is wrong with the way things are.

YOU ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RIGHT!!

We were talking here at work today.....AGAIN....and I've heard this more times than not.....someone is going to vote for someone cause they are 'nice'!!! OMG!!! I asked this person...'you are voting for this person JUST because they are 'nice'?' They looked me right in the eyes like I had 2 heads, as serious as a heart attack and said...'well yes...what is wrong with that?'

And yet politically, this voter is against everything this politician supports....BUT DON'T KNOW IT NOR IS INTERESTED!!!

And this my cyber friends is the mindset of the majority of the voters out there!!!

Box...based on your posts, and you service in Vietnam, I assume you are in you 60's.  So it is possible you've been voting for nearly a half of a century - and all you do is gripe.  How many more years will you have to vote until the griping stops?

Make sure you vote, so the media can call the winner with only 1% of the vote in.   Because every vote counts!

Oh yes!  With bated breath!  The anxiety is high!  Does voter participation get above 40%?

Based on the results, the only conclusion that a reasonable person can draw is that the voters in the city recognize that Mayor McCarthy and the City Council ARE leading the city in the right direction.

Got up in the middle of the night to see the results and I don't believe them. Seriously. Where did the votes for Kosiur come from ? Most can't not stand him.

I "gripe" about injustice, bigotry, inequality etc.  I want MORE from my govt to make America a better place.
You "GRIPE" about what helps you with no regard for it's impact on the rest of the country.  
(And yes, I've voted in every election since Vietnam.)

On these boards hardly ever. However every time I go to the VA Hospital in Albany, or the Clinic here in Schenectady, I hear it all the time.
