Brad Raffensperger wants two Election officials canned!

Georgia Secretary Of State Wants Two Fulton County Election Officials Fired

Little late for Raffensperger to come to this conclusion if you were to ask me, as it has been reported by the media that Fulton County has had election problems for years.

“Fulton County’s continued failures have gone on long enough with no accountability. [Fulton County election director] Rick Barron and Ralph Jones, Fulton’s registration chief, must be fired and removed from Fulton’s elections leadership immediately. Fulton’s voters and the people of Georgia deserve better,” Raffensperger said in a tweet Thursday.

The Georgia Senate bill 202 "allows state legislative representatives, county commissioners or the State Elections Board itself to request an investigation of the county’s election’s superintendent. For some counties, that means replacing the probate judge, but in others, it means replacing an entire election board with a single individual.

Outwardly nefarious planning prior to an election as well as the outright overturning of election results isn't possible in the new law, and any attempts to do so would ultimately fall on the shoulders of the secretary of state — a position currently held by Brad Raffensperger, the man who defended the integrity of the Nov. 3 election."

New Commission in Lake Worth

'I was stunned': Lake Worth Beach has a new mayor and 2 new commissioners

"The results guarantee three newcomers to political office will be on the socially-distanced dais at City Hall when the commission meets as scheduled on Tuesday." We have yet to learn when or where they will be sworn in.

"And there could be a fourth new member on the five-person board if challenger Christopher McVoy beats Carla Blockson, appointed in December to replace Omari Hardy as District 2 representative, in a runoff on March 23."

Check out what they said...

Lake Worth Election Results

Voters said it was Time for change

This election was won by 1) mail-in ballots 2) extensive use of social media (a media that Trump perfected) which they used to a big advantage, cracking the heads of incumbents non-stop on a daily basis. The fact that many people wanted term-limits thus change, played a big factor as well.

Residents didn't like the city screwing around with our pool, their plans for our beach and demolishing or moving historic buildings for development. They didn't like the perception that the incumbents were rubber stamps for the city manager. And they certainly were not happy that their calls were not returned or their concerns not addressed.

Palm Beach Post Endorsements

Palm Beach Post endorsements for Lake Worth Beach city Commission

Well, the only surprise from this Alt-Left newspaper was doing something right--the endorsement for Mayor Pam Triolo. Omari Hardy's wish to kick her off the dais has been setbck by this endorsement.

The rest of their endorsements are no surprise: a Democratic Socialist, a Globalist Biden supporter who loves Omari Hardy, and a minority to take the seat that she was appointed to and once held by racist Omari Hardy. If there was an illegal alien running they would probably endorse him/her too.

The Post's article is full of lies and fantasy. Sure don't know who they've been listening/talking to...What they said: "a city leadership struggling to complete capital projects, settle on a clear direction for downtown development and fighting a perception of being unresponsive to city residents —particularly the Black and Latino communities that make up the majority of Lake Worth Beach’s population."

As a side of trivia and according to one demographic, non-citizens make up 27.2% of our population in the city and according to Neighborhood Scout, foreign born residents make up 37.4%.

Socialists trying to take over our city government in Lake Worth

Democratic Socialist running for District 3?

Does this candidate want to end Capitalism!!?

This is what they stand for:

 We are the Palm Beach County chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America.

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is the largest socialist organization in the United States. DSA’s members are building progressive movements for social change while establishing an openly democratic socialist presence in American communities and politics.

At the root of our socialism is a profound commitment to democracy, as means and end. As we are unlikely to see an immediate end to capitalism tomorrow, DSA fights for reforms today that will weaken the power of corporations and increase the power of working people. For example, we support reforms that:

    decrease the influence of money in politics
    empower ordinary people in workplaces and the economy
    restructure gender and cultural relationships to be more equitable.

We are activists committed to democracy as not simply one of our political values but our means of restructuring society. Our vision is of a society in which people have a real voice in the choices and relationships that affect the entirety of our lives. We call this vision democratic socialism — a vision of a more free, democratic and humane society.

We are socialists because we reject an international economic order sustained by private profit, alienated labor, race and gender discrimination, environmental destruction, and brutality and violence in defense of the status quo.

We are socialists because we share a vision of a humane international social order based both on democratic planning and market mechanisms to achieve equitable distribution of resources, meaningful work, a healthy environment, sustainable growth, gender and racial equality, and non-oppressive relationships.

City Commission Appoints Carla Blockson to fill vacant seat in District 2

Tuesday night under Unfinished Business there was a discussion item of appointing someone to fill the vacancy left by Omari Hardy until the March 2021 election.

It was shocking to learn that the commission bypassed an official process and went directly to a motion to appoint. There was no public commentary because who would have thought they would make a motion for an appointment when it was listed as DISCUSSION. Vice Mayor Amoroso made the motion to appoint Carla Blockson, seconded by Commissioner Scott Maxwell. Even the mayor sounded like she was on Carla Blockson's campaign committee.

This is an unfair process as Carla Blockson is running for that commission seat thus this commission shut out the other candidates by giving Carla Blockson a huge advantage and endorsement over the other candidates, Paola Saray Branda, Mary Ann Rasura, Ryan Olander and Chris McVoy. This is politics at its worst as there is nothing in the Charter that demands they appoint anyone. Don't ask me if I'm pi*sed...democracy at it's "finest."

On Monday December 21 at 5pm, there will be a "Swearing In" of Mrs. Blockson.

Go to 2:54:02 for the start of this discussion and subsequent vote.

A few more candidates in the mix

Just got my Lake Worth Herald!

And learned that Christopher McVoy, former Lake Worth City Commissioner is running again in District 2. As you know,  it is an open spot as Omari Hardy won his election as Florida State rep.

Also, since I last wrote about this, Kimberly Stokes is running against Andy Amoroso.
