Ugh. I have been giving serious consideration to not voting in tomorrow's NJ gubenatorial race. The Democratic candidate has no realistic plan to ameliorate the state's financial mess whereas the Republican candidate has no plan of any kind. There is an independent candidate but he will not win. I could write in a prior candidate who was eliminated during the primaries but, again, he will not win. This feels like the 2000 presidential election all over to me.
I will vote 'no' on a bond issue but, as always, it will pass.

I've been watching the New Jersey race, as it seems like a bellweather for the desire for a third party in the U.S. New York 23 was a similar bellweather until the Republican dropped out. Just remember what the third party guy said. A vote on principle is never a wasted vote.
You know adding a third party does not really make it better - it just means you have three crappy choices instead of two crappy choices.

The problem here is not one of you ran for office.
RUN FOR MAYOR
PRIMARY POLITICAL POLICY: Every Act of Government, Law, Constitution, Executive requires the direct and regular approval of Every Citizen.
Its all about Ethics. Once you have everyone with a seat for life in Parliament then you wont need to pay Aldermen for being elected because you and every other citizen will be paid five dollars for turning out to vote once a month.
