Other than this blog and one robo call from Gary Antieau against 3 year terms, it passed this time. There was not one group with the will to raise the money to help defeat this referendum. So much damage can be done in just one year...three is unimaginable particularly with a developer backed commission. We get the elected officials that we deserve when people don't get involved.

It's definitely time for term limits. Two, three year terms would be perfect.

  1. After the trio voted themselves mo' money? Unbelievable. I guess voters didn't bother to vote.

  3. "To prevent every danger which might arise to
    American freedom from continuing too long in
    office, it is earnestly recommended that we
    set an obligation on the holder of that office
    to go out after a certain period." -- Thomas Jefferson
