People I am Not Voting For

September 14th is the Washington State Primary and voters guides and mail-in ballots are starting to come in the mail. I'm excited to be voting for Ron Sims and Mark Sidran. And as with every primary election there are tons of crackpot candidates. Here are a few candidates I am definately not voting for with linkks to the online votersguide.

William Edward Chovil – US Senate "Here is the deal, not the "new-deal", not the "raw-deal", not the "bum deal", but the "pro-American deal"; if you believe that America can do better with more Americanism and less Socialism let me represent you in the United States Senate." I almost want to vote for this guy just for fun.

Will Baker – State Auditor "I believe the number one issue in the 2004 State Auditor election ought to be the attempts by current Washington State Attorney General Christine Gregoire to cover-up the events surrounding Crystal Brame’s murder." Um, yeah...

Mike The Mover - Governor "I propose alternating Legislative sessions, beginning in 2005 to be held at alternating fixed locations in Eastern Washington, namely Ellensburg (2005), Cheney (2007), and Pullman (2009)." Mike The Mover's ideas are not as strange as his voter's guide picture.

David Blomstrom - Superintendent of Public Instruction "My campaign website lists over 25 issues, focusing on protecting children from corporations, the "Seattle Mafia" and Homeland Security. Vote no on I-884; why create a state income tax when we can save BILLIONS by boycotting Microsoft and the WASL and holding corrupt school officials, teachers unions and their cronies accountable? Free open source software (like Linux) could also protect users from viruses, high-tech spies, and Microshaft’s software patches and outsourcing, further boosting the economy." Now how did I miss the Microsoft/WASL connection? It all makes so much sense now!
