Two out of two elections for County Commission will probably be closed to Democrats and independents this year. Only registered Republicans will be permitted to vote in the "universal primary" in which County Commission Chairman JOHN H. "JAY" MORRIS, JR. and RONALD SANCHEZ seek re-election. Shills have filed to run as write-ins in both races, closing the primary. Democrats have not run a candidate for a county-wide partisan race since 2006.
Our state election laws favor incumbents. Our local Democratic Party is inept.
In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!
