I would have expected a hardcopy list of voters. No reason not to have a backup.

I’m against the library measure and have encouraged family members to vote against it.

That being said, turnout is low across the county according to all sources reporting. If voters can’t wait 15-30 minutes to register opposition to the measure as is reported by Plaugh and others at Woodland Park, then they deserve what they get.

Once again, The Founding Editor is more about histrionics and hype than facts. Why am I not surprised?

Clarification:

“I’m against the library measure and have encouraged family members to vote against it, as I did myself.”

Normally, I would have, too. But I’m through giving this Council approval on a damn thing until they prove they are anything other than a pack of spendthrifts.

The inept and untrustworthy financial stewards would starve to death if financial prudence was a key to modern survival.

I agree completely. This is an off election. Even if there is one damn machine, there can’t be that many voters.

I can see complaints about last year having validity, but if this is going to turn into a bitch fit every single goddamn time someone has to wait longer than they think they should have to, that’s ridiculous. You have all day to vote. If it is crowded in the morning, come back later.

I had to wait well over an hour last year and I don’t even live in Richland. I never complained. If voting is that much of a pain for you, just stay home.

Hint: If you go right before or right after work, shocker! There’s going to be long lines.

I went about 3:15, walked in, had my ID checked and voted. Five minutes counting parking.

T-Bone will be reelected and the library tax hike will fail.

Agree about Mr. Benjamin but disagree about the Library measure.

More pictures of guns! That analogy, no matter how it’s used, gives me shivers up my legs.
