So we’re into the false start of voting … President’s Day holiday keeping everybody on the edge of their seats! (That is one out of three or so of you who’ll actually bother to vote in this election.)
But let’s not get into that. We know from our most recent straw poll that ALL Lizardistas on FB plan to vote. (Get all of your friends, family, etc., to join you while you’re at it.)
EL EMPTY didn’t make its recommendations today. And we won’t either, but here’s what YOU said in the recent (unscientific) Lizard straw polls. NOTE: Some of these polls got some pretty decent response. Some got crap, particularly the race for JP Pct 3.
But most of these races got close to 100 votes; a couple close to 150 and one over 200. Again, this is what YOU had to say. Not the Lizard! They are ALL closed now, btw. Exercise your right to vote at the polls opening Tuesday!
