text: In reply to message71033: Because of the twisted fashion in the way we now conduct our elections. I agree with you 100%. What are we going to do about it. We actually gained some ground in local elections across the very blue state of NJ. I'm 58yrs old and should have been paying more attention to local politics years ago. I feel as though because I didn't I inadvertently helped get us where we are. We have to fix this or there will never be a real Republican president ever again. The republican leadership has no balls and is complacent. They had 2yrs to fix as much of the election problems as they could and did almost nothing. There are very few republicans who actually represent us conservatives.
