The Value of 60 votes

A small number of voters on March 12, 2019 (1402 to be exact) changed our history forever in our 107 year old city. They won the election by 60 votes to change our name.

This is one recommendation for sure that Omari Hardy got right...He advocated for a NO vote, a guy who had only lived here a short time, had more sense of history than the rest of the commission as well as those who voted for the name change.

So, now the city has officially adopted the new seal with the changed name of our city inscribed on it.

Yes, it was stupid to change the name of our city

New seal looks like a blurred tattoo on a drunken old sailor.

Still annoyed about this name change. It will always be just Lake Worth to me.
