Elections in Cape Coral and Fort Myers have low voter turnout.
I don’t know what it takes to get people to come out to vote. Residents of Cape Coral and Fort Myers are aware and living our troubled economy. It just seems to me that this time more than any other would be important to come out and vote. It seems apathy rules.
This morning’s headlines says it all. “FEW VOTE, INCUMBENTS RULE”. What I worry about are the incumbents that have been here thru the good times. They have spent our money like the windfall it was and then tell people they have got to stop the spending. They have got to lower taxes, etc. Basic economics 101; If you are going to raise taxes at such an enormous rate for several years and force people to sell their properties why is this a surprise that we are where we are? Why does government act so irresponsible and not use any common sense? Now that they are lowering taxes they don’t know how to fund the budget. SURPRISE!!!
Everyone should vote. It is not a right, it is a responsibility!
