Instead of bagging on Gumapac so much... can you tell me what are the reasonS (Yes with a capitol S) you are supporting Naeole?
Is the only reason... her eventual vote on the Wheelabrator?"
Damon,
First, my M.O. is not about "bagging" Kale. I have given my honest opinion in response when other people have initiated assessment of his qualities as a candidate.
Second, yes, for the record, I have previously stated that I will vote for Naeole in the Primary because she did the right thing on the Wheelabrator vote. Also, I have previously stated that I do not ask nor expect anyone else to do the same.
One vote? Well, it was a big vote and not just any vote -- the most important and decisive vote made in the Council term.
Across the years, I have not felt compelled to cast my vote on such a basis in any election. However, this time in this election it seems like what I (not necessarily anyone else) ought to do.
Be disappointed later? No, that has already happened
We'll see how it looks at the General Election.
Thanks, Damon, for your interest -- seriously
Remember, this is only politics and we'll all be moving on afterwards.
