The November Ballot

(Click on image to enlarge)

The ballot for the November election has been decided... more or less.

The candidates will be where the image above shows them...unless they drop out. And already, they're droppin'...

The Republican candidate for Tax Collector, Paul Frosolone, has dropped out; and the Chair of the Republican Town Committee, Paul Frosolone, has installed Lisa Ortiz as a replacement. And a Republican City Council candidate has withdrawn; with no replacement as yet.

Rumor has it that several other changes are a-coming. However, none of the changes I've heard of involves the Democratic line. And yet the politico's wonder why the Democrats keep winning.

It's all about the continuity...and the sense of organization (and no other party has shown any glimmer of organization.) Voters want stability...and changing your horses in the middle of the race isn't a marker of stability.

Honestly, you guys...do you really expect the voters to take you seriously, when you don't take yourselves seriously? Has it ever occurred to you that changes in the line-up, in the middle of a game, give the voters : (A) the sense that you've no vision...and (B) no reason to vote for your candidates?

West Haven voters aren't as dumb as you think. Not a comforting thought, huh? Too bad.
