THE ONE-VOTE-LOSERS

Who are the One-Vote-Losers? The One-Vote-Losers are you and I and everyone else in Preble. Not the people who tried to run, they tried to make a difference, and they made the effort. We are all losers because our free choice at the election was taken from us by 21 people at the Democrat caucus and 46 people at the Republican caucus. If you didn't go to either of the caucuses then you too are a loser because your one vote could have made a difference this year. Usually when you have losers you have winners but not in this case because the people who stole your right to choose cannot be called winners by any stretch of the imagination. They might think that this fact will be forgotten over the next few years, they are wrong. Taking away peoples right to vote is serious stuff to me and it is a crusade I'll be on forever.

The candidates who lost weren't trying to take over the town, they were just trying to give people a choice in November and they are the real and only winners. The GOBs couldn't let that happen because they knew that if people had a choice their choice would not be them. The only way they can hold on to power is to cheat and steal. I wouldn't want to be them, or to be liked by them, or to associate with them. In point of fact they are the real losers, they have to live with what they have done, if they can.
