Colony Bay was deserted, but Preston Pointe has been very busy. The crowd consisted of the following.<BR/><BR/>65% - Senior Citizens<BR/>20% - Women - average age 40-45<BR/>15% - Men - average age 40-60<BR/><BR/>These are just rough estimates but I have yet to see a single person that I would guess is under the age of 35. <BR/><BR/>I guess they don't care much.<BR/><BR/>I had one guy actually ask me who to vote for for At-Large.

Without Harrison Square falling into to Kelty's lap, we would be talking about a landslide.<BR/><BR/>Intead, we are talking about Kelty possibly winning this thing.

Clearly, Kelty ran a very good campaign and he was clearly up in the polls two weeks ago, but Peters dominated the stretch run with direct mail, radio, tv and endorsements. I say Peters 51/49 or closer. <BR/><BR/>There is NO way Crawford gets knocked out entirely. I would be shocked if he does not finish first. He will not finish first by a large margin like he did in the 2003 general, but he will finish first. And Bender OR Brown will get 1 of the other 2 spots. <BR/><BR/>I do agree that Mildred and Morris will duke it out for the remaining spot.<BR/><BR/>Enjoy your election day.<BR/><BR/>Sam T.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11887973.post-14410403746816051302007-05-07T21:20:00.000-04:002007-05-07T21:20:00.000-04:00If Matt does not win....I will be moving out of Fo...If Matt does not win....I will be moving out of Fort Wayne!
