Chance remains to kick out incumbents

Regarding the letter to the editor written by Ray Fries of California (May 30, Daily Bee):

When my wife and I voted on May 25, I talked to a few of the lovely lady poll workers about the turnout. They seemed pretty disappointed to say the least.

Quite a few people said we get what we deserve. I cannot disagree more. If an eligible voter sits at home and only vote, the dead wood, liars and incumbents that we know are not good remain to continue their agenda. We can only be partially successful.

There is still one more chance this year. Let us clean house of bovine scatterization in November. I can think of one each commissioner, one assessor and one clerk who have been in office too long.
