I feel the same man. I'm in 14 and it was a toss up between Kao and Demong. Either way I felt dirty so I went with who I felt least dirty voting for.

Same here. But I reconciled this by voting for Misty for trustee because of the good times spent at Misty's strip club...and both make me feel dirty.

It just took me aback.

Good work.

I didn't vote.

I banned myself from voting after being exposed to that horrendous civic camp copycat website, I got really confused about who to vote for and couldn't trust my judgement

I dunno about turnout this year ... but there is seriously a mob of people outside of Sunnyside Elementary. Enough that I won't be waiting in line

After work is always a busy time to vote. I work 10-6 so I voted in the Advance Poll to avoid the lines.

I voted on my lunch hour, and wowow... I've never see so many elderly congregated in one area before. Politics is truly is a old person's game

I was sad to see Milan didn't make the final cut for mayor. The sign he was carrying a few weeks ago was memorable.

Ward 8, voted for Woolley. I have a large dislike for that smug arse kissing Mar. He'll win unfortunately. Didn't fill in my ballot for trustee. We have no kids and won't have kids therefore I don't feel my opinion should matter...though I wish I thought of the Misty angle.

Oh, and I wonder if KyleMLA will say it's a mistake again.

Voted for Wooley too. I hope he wins but I'm not optimistic.

So did I. It was mostly a protest vote because Mar is a tool.

Voted for Woolley as well, then wrote myself in for public school trustee. I want evil vending machines back in the halls of the weak and nerdy.
