This seems to be a going trend.

In Lewisville, an newly minted LHS grad (18 year old) ran for Mayor this weekend. I will see if I can get the results of the election.

Speaking of elections, I am VERY DISAPOINTED in the election turnout in this country. I voted today at about 1PM in Lewisville. Total that had voted as of 11:30AM...41. Pathetic. So basically, about 100-200 people are going to elect the Mayor, a city councel place, and LISD schoolboard member for a city of 80,000.

----I do not understand why people fail to vote..... the candidates have the power to set our taxes, spend our money (wisely or foolishly) and in the case of a Presidental election to even get a country involved in a war..........(Don't start a political thread on me)... In short .....vote....and then you can complain if you want to... otherwise... shut up!!! ...you just didn't care.
