CW: Invercargill mayoralty - a most unsuited candidate
It's cooker time in Invercargill. While the position of mayor usually attracts a varied bunch of candidates, a certain Gordon McCrone stands out this time as a blatant and unashamed fantasist. McCrone's web site is a damming record of one man's amassed insanity.*
It seems Police and doctors are all out to get McCrone. "My Criminal Lawyer says it will cost $30,000 and take 2 years to put the Entire Wellington Police Department in Prison." Only thirty grand? I'm sure most people would expect to pay at least twice that amount to depose an entire force.
He claims an "effective PhD" in sociology and criminology and aborigine life". Not a real PhD then. But it gets weirder.
McCrone apparently advises President Joe Biden on "internal and external affairs." Uh-huh.
Then there's this: "At the age of 7, I discovered I was a pedophile..."
He claims that due to pain he can "barely do 1 minute of masturbating instead of hours non stop..."
More worryingly, he calls himself "an unregistered, self-appointed child sex psychologist."
That's enough. This man is actually standing for the mayoralty. God save us all.

CW: Local elections in Deming, NM
Not a lot of controversy in this local city council contest -- but it's one of the first competitive elections for local office in years. Deming has had a bad uncontested-election problem, and still does. But here is one of two seats, occupied by appointees, with engaged citizens stepping up to run.

He remains gracious in the face of the huge burden of a life of ultra luxury paid for by a history of slavery, land grabbing, stolen loot and robbing the tax payer. God bless ya sir, you deserve all those billions. Burden my arse

I applied for a postal vote early last month. It did not arrive.
No explanation from the local government apart from "the form was not received."
Today I went to the polling station. Masked. With ID.
I invited the election officer to step outside if they wanted me to remove my mask. They declined. They OK'D my right to vote and gave me my ballot form.
I protected my health.

Tuesday August 10thJust one on the #LocalElections list today.
Dane County, #Wisconsin has a Special General Election for County Board of Supervisors in District 20.Generally, a County Board of Supervisors is in charge of local municipal services such as health, roads, parks, libraries &law enforcement. They pass ordinances and regulations, as well as vote on zoning laws and budget resolutions.
Their work affects communities on the local level, having a direct impact on the day to day workings of a county. That's why it's so important to make sure the people elected have the best interests of the community at heart.
