Donkey votes
This is the text of a letter in the Daily Telegraph yesterday 12/3/07
................................................................
One wonders how many people will walk into polling booths in less than two weeks with little idea of who they are voting for.
Vic Emerton
Chester Hill

I have felt the same and sent my two bob's worth in to the same paper.
.....................................................................
Well at least the seat of Miranda is still in doubt.
Today (Tuesday) they are still counting the votes, and it's neck and neck.
"Someone" put up this last sign at Sylvania.
......................................................................
Enough of that nonsense .
......................................................................
This was in yesterday's paper.
I'll see if I can find out what sort of Flashing lights they will use, that's if they get past the RTA.
........................................................................
The Telegraph did print my letter this morning but left out the following paragraph, which I did think made a valid point.
.
[A person could be forgiven for voting for Mr Collier because of his stance on crime, not realising that it was the "local MP's" own government with their law and order policies, that allowed the build up of tensions before the Cronulla riots.]
But as the Tele gives me a fair run not to worry, I made my point.
........................................................................
This morning I noticed signs that have appeared high up on power poles in my area, no doubt to follow up on Mr Collier's Logo less flyer from last weekend.
So I thought what could I do to use the wording of this heartfelt plea.
This afternoon my suggestion greeted the peakhour traffic heading south off Tom Uglies Bridge.

After nailing the sign and taking a photo a young man came up and asked what the sign meant.
Jesse is his name, HI JESSE! and he wasn't too sure that NSW would be better under a Debnam government. He'd heard that the Liberals only help the rich and he would loose overtime.
I assured him that a good worker will always be OK.
I explained that I was helping to make aware that Barry Collier is actually ALP, a fact he is appearently trying to hide.
I could be mistaken and it's just that his printers leave out bits.
I've got nothing against the man personally, it's just that I can't stand people being conned, and I can see no other reason to leave out ALP logos, and don't mention in any flyers (I've seen) that he is the ALP MP for Miranda, in case it could cost votes.
All the best in the future Jesse.

With close to 100 vehicles passing my post per minute this morning,
these are the number of proud Labor voters ----- SEVEN!
I gave warning of the survey on both Port Hacking Rd and the Princes Highway thus,
Of course you would realize that the Poll is all a bit of nonsense just to get you to get onto this web site, and to make voters think, as with my different signs recently.
I was surprized though, that there were only seven, as I thought that there would more Labor devotees that could find the horn button.
But then again leaving aside the mechanics of tooting, have you ever met anyone that actually admits to voting labor, State or Federally?

If you look in the Category on the right "About School zone santa" you can see why I have this site.
........................................................................
Mr Debnam has promised "flashing lights" for school and as Miranda is a marginal seat it is therefore important to both sides.
Yes I know that Politicians make promises at election time, and I will be watching to see what happens.

This is what I wrote on the site on 11/10/06
[ Promises are coming thick and fast and the election is months away.
I just hope that the "I'll put flashing lights at schools when we win the election" is a core promise and doesn't come into "the circumstances have changed " bracket, with the disclaimer, that "school zones are all Labor's fault anyway". ]

Sorry about the wobbly sign writing but this is a no budget
operation.
