Vote In The Place You Love The Most - Remember That Mantra??? It is Swiftly Becoming Meaningless!!!
As the industrial wind and related ethics mess heated up in Cape Vincent, NY the supposed "anti wind" mantra was to Vote in the Place You Love the Most, or could have the most impact, was aimed at seasonal people who could legally change their voter registration to vote in CV rather than another place they lived as long as they met the legal qualifications...and many seasonals did meet those qualifications. My wife and I also met those qualifications and have voted in CV a number of times.
It is no secret that the seasonal voter has been pivotal in keeping Hirschey and crew in power over several elections.
This mantra was promoted heavily by the CV JLL blog and particularly previous frequent commenter "TI"
So if I am supposed to make difference and "Vote in the Place I Love the Most " or where my vote is supposed to have the most impact...
Then why is it that suddenly CV Councilman Marty Mason, who was among the most controversial pro wind CV govt officials in the heated CV wind battle, and many seasonal Hirschey supporters voted AGAINST is now the CV Deputy Town Supervisor...even if it is only temporary?????
The same man who with others brought forth an illegal and unconstitutional Cape Vincent voter registration law targeted against the very seasonal voters keeping Hirschey and crew in power?
The same man who Mr. Hirschey, the current CV Town Supervisor, just appointed to the Dep. Supervisor position!!!!
I guess Voting in the Place You Love the Most is becoming more meaningless lately!!!

...and let's not forget, made him a signer on the Town's checkbook. No vote taken as it was the Supervisor's decision alone to make. No excuses acceptable on this one.
ReplyDeleteThis is so bizarre! What was Hirscey thinking????? Obviously he wasn't!!! He has caused major damage.
ReplyDeleteI am very dismayed by the way this decision was made and also by the recent passing of $70 extra fee for water. Do we have any rights at all by being taxpayers and voters? Why does a decision such as this not come before the taxpayers?
