Do You Know Why The Election Board Needs More Room?

The state of Maryland has chosen to break away from electronic ballots and will go back to paper ballots after this upcoming election.

One has to wonder if we'll see the same games in the upcoming election as we did in the last City election?

In my own personal opinion, how could a man who has been in office for eight years, (Rick Pollitt) be re-elected if EVERYTHING he has done has proven he is absolutely CLUELESS when it comes to jobs and industry.

Rick Pollitt has proven his only answers are to TAX ad FEE their way out of this depression. How's it working for you Folks?

Joe Ollinger almost beat Rick Pollitt in the last election and with all due respect he barely campaigned and truly did not work very hard to try to beat Rick. 

Here's what I see in our future, should you elect Bob Culver. First of all, Bob is a proven and successful businessman. Bob completely understands that in order to succeed in this County we must create good paying jobs and attract manufacturers and industry to the many empty buildings in the County. 

I couldn't believe Rick Pollitt stating in the NAACP Forum the other night that things are looking UP and that SWED will be delivering positive information in the very near future, B.S.! We just had ANOTHER big company that ultimately will lose a total of 140+ jobs in the County.

It makes me sick to my stomach that a man like Rick Pollitt couldn't stand there the other night and actually GIVE you that alleged positive information. Why, because he's full of crap. 

I canot wait until the paper ballots come back and we can finally stop the games with the electronic ballots. Mind you, in 2008 the state voted to bring back paper ballots but Governor O'Malley refused to put money into the budget until THIS YEAR to do so. We need a larger election board facility because they need to store the ballots for a longer period of time because of so much voter fraud in the state and they want to be able to go back several years to investigate such fraud. What a great state Maryland is. 

I want you to think about your quality of life here Ladies & Gentlemen. I truly do not believe you will argue with me when I say we want to raise our children here. We'd like to keep our children close as they grow older and build their own Families. Do we really want to be forced to get on a plane once or twice a year to go isit our kids or force them to get their entire Family on a plane to come "home"? 

I believe, (as does Bob Culver) we need new blood. It's time we elect someone who has business experience. Someone who knows the language to convince companies to relocate here and start rebuilding the Eastern Shore.

Rick has had EIGHT YEARS to prove himself and all he has done is CRY about the Tax Cap because he doesn't want to WORK to make things better, he doesn't know how to do it. He'd rather TAX you instead. It's time you vote for Bob Culver and start rebuilding.

Rick is doing a great job and is very well liked in Wicomico County. He will win re-election easily.

Rick has done nothing, period. That's the password for us Dems, period. Yes, I'm a democrat and voted for Rick twice but he has had his two terms, which by the way is what an executive should be limited to, and has failed us. Do I think Culver is the right man for the job, maybe not, but I will vote for him and give him a chance to make a difference. Again, Rick has done nothing and failed in the job.

Can someone list the companies Bobby ran? Or what this business experience is? I would like some background into his investments and partners in his various "businesses".

Sorry, ain't going to happen this time. I've wasted 2 votes of Ricky and he has gotten the last one from me. I don't care what Culver has been involved in I'm giving him chance.

Pollitt is a baffoon beauracrat. It is all he has ever known and I'm not voting for him ever.

Give Rick the stick! Rick has complained about the revenue cap from day 1. We must live with in our means and stop the spending and tax increases.

If they used paper ballots in the city race, you would be mayor now Joe.

Rick is now in bed with Pagano and Mitchell -- sad, but true. He won't get my vote a third time.

Pollitt's pal Pretl won't save his chestnuts this time like he did 4 years ago.

Anyone else shed light on this? I would say that is important if he is running for executive. Right?

Actually I think it's on this blog archive. I'll check. I know there were lawsuits and sheriff sales of properties about 4 years ago. In those comments I was shocked what people shed light on. Love the blog for that!

Pollitt is shopping for a big new building for the Board of Elections, and I'm sure he will have the new digs "wired" properly by election day! Good luck, Mr Culver. You will get 2/3 of the votes easily, but the election board will inform you of your loss to Pollitt...

1:48 is a Troll who might be Rick Pollitt or Chuck Cook. You can believe the Democrat club is looking at this quite closely. They are running scared and I can't blame them.

6:12 PM you can't be serious thinking Joe Olinger is a good choice.
