We can only hope

Today I am just going to lay back and wait for the results. I don't want to jinx the election by sign waving or anything else. I voted at 9am and 10 people had voted before me. This election will be decided by whoever gets out the vote.

Each candidate raised a lot of money especially in the last 10 days. Suzanne has to come from behind because of the PB Post endorsement, city employees walking around in their Firefighter T-shirts campaigning for Dave, Union guys waving signs and walking for Dave, the Human Rights Council guys raving about Dave and out of town people calling Lake Worth voters to have them vote for Dave.

If Suzanne manages to win, I can only hope that her votes will reflect the voice of the majority as well as reason and that she will listen to the taxpayers of our City. I hope that she will be her own person and not beholding to the Socialists. Her campaign turned down a free phone bank yesterday and Larry Winawer, her campaign strategist, said they were doing just fine.

If Dave wins, I can only hope that he will be more flexible, compromise, and listen to a wider area of residents, not just the handful of people directing business as usual in our City.

Let's all hope that the best candidate wins today!
