Because our sheriff is a nutjob, and the only way to vote him out is to vote against him in the primary. In NC you can only vote in your primary for which you are a registered voter in that party. Zero republicans running. And unfortunately, I believe the vote is gonna be split, and somehow he will pull through. Been a registered independent my entire life, but about to do something I never imagined before. Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here. Although sometimes distracting, there is often a certain entertainment value to this easy standard. -JALLEN "All I need is a WAR ON DRUGS reference and I got myself a police thread BINGO." -jljones | ||

Unless it's you and a few thousand other people, it won't make a difference. Good luck. | |||

It is a pity. Here in PA, former State Cops comprise probably 80 to 90% of the sitting Sheriff's in the Commonwealth. Then there is the example of the Sheriff of the County of Philadelphia who makes you question the competency and qualifications of the person holding the office. You get what you pay for. | |||

Scared me, I thought maybe you just found out you had a fatal illness. Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking. | |||

The only time I voted for a D was Russ Fiengold in the primary because I figured he'd be the easiest for Bob Kasten to beat. And that was the end of that. | |||

Here in Commie infested Colorado if you register as an Independent you get BOTH primary ballots mailed to you. However, you can only vote one of them! If you vote both I think they get flagged and neither counts. | |||

Safespot, appreciate that! Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here.

| The success of a solution usually depends upon your point of view |
