Question for Olin Moore and Don Samuels (or their campaign staff). Would you support IRV for local elections?
If so, would you use your position to help promote a referendum, push for a direct vote on the city council, or support it in some other manner? If not, would you abstain, vote against it, or actively work to see it blocked? . . . >> I couldn't help but chime in on this on.

The question is, who? > could it at least be printed with soy ink on chlorine free paper so I > can recycle it? I would like to see all candidates (and anyone else) who sends out things that are destined for the trash/recycle use environmental printing methods. How about chlorine free hemp paper? Acre for acre, close to the same yield in paper, but the hemp'll grow back in a year. Oh, that's right. It's illegal. . . . Maybe as a money saver for the city, they can start a industrial grade hemp farm to generate paper for city use and employee local unemployed folks to work it. Sales of the paper (and maybe cloth too!) can be a revenue source. I don't usually like seeing the government do things that should be handled by private enterprise, but since any entrepenuer trying this ends up in jail, maybe the city can help us out a bit. - Jason Goray, Sheridan, NE (Btw, I can't remember if it was on this list that someone said that the USPS would be dead in 20 years. To the best of my understanding, it would require an ammendment to the US Constitution or at the very least, a case before the Supreme Court to reinterpret how the current form is read. Otherwise, while it may be much more expensive to use, it won't go away.) __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
