It Ain't Over Til It's Over

Disclaimer:  everything contained in this blog is MY OPINION.  Every attempt is made to present the truth through actual facts or to identify statements which are in doubt;  otherwise there will be no deliberate presentation of gossip, rumor, or innuendo which can't be proven as factual.

Knowing what some Electrans have become-that is, people without scruples or ethics- it's no surprise that we seem to have a repeat of the school bond campaign  which  apparently did and will cost some people their jobs.  There were no consequences  from that,  so it might be expected our city commissioners would encourage a telephone campaign against Sue Howell to try and force her out of office.  We can probably expect more of the same whenever anyone opposes them.
Ms.Howell's resignation, for whatever reason,  is going to cost us in more ways than we can imagine, and she should never have run for the office   People feel betrayed and abandoned.  I don't blame them. Suffice it to say that I don't think if  someone had been hired to come in and make a mess, they could have done a better job of it.
What has happened to Electra?
Is it any wonder people don't want to live here and the town is dying?
Now we can stand and watch the mayor and commissioners appoint someone just like them to replace Ms. Howell.  You can guess what former city authority, or school official, or medical complex flunky will be our next commissioner, can't you?
As for it being time to give up?
Sorry, but I haven't heard the fat lady sing yet.
I think it's time to play 20 Questions, starting now:

1.  Who thinks threats and intimidation is an ok way to do things?

Come on, answer honestly.
Tune in next week for Question #2

Anybody got another petition to recall Warner and DeLizio?  Bring it on!
