Doesn't Samuelson have some kind of relative or inlaw that works in Clatsop County Elections?

If 44% say they want you gone what lesson do you take from that?

Clarify your point for us would you?

An interesting point for me is that I talked to one phone canvasser working for Dstrict 5 recall and she said that election was going to be pretty much as it ended but she also noticed a huge amount of apathy, not really caring about it or even attempting to vote or just plain hostile, in the people she called and an unusual number of disconnected telephone services, for whatever that means.

One more McGee prediction goes down in flames.
Love those rigged polls, Paddy.

Absolutely!

That was stupid, stupid, stupid having a general straw poll for candidates in a district election.

I'll never do that again.
