Voting in UTAH

Just got done. Have you voted yet? If not, get off your butt and get to the booths NOW!

The turn out was awesome when Kathi and I got there, numbers flowing through the doors. We were assisted in the paperwork as we had just moved, but during the voting the young man who helped us called his Grandfather. He begged the old guy to come vote. With a smile on his face, he looked around at the full room and said:

“Yes Grandpa, there’s a great turn out! In fact, there’s already been far more people through than when Obama was voted into office, and it’s not even noon yet!”

That was saying a lot.
The room was full of passion and while I was voting out every single Judge in my power to do so, an old man was yelling in line: “Vote ‘em out! Vote ‘em ALL out! Until we have judges that stand on principle and show their colors for us to discern between them, vote them ALL OUT!!”

It was awesome.

Yes, we have a screwed up amendment to our beloved Utah Constitution, which takes away the need for Judges to run like any other politician. What a Croc-o-Crap. The voter information says Judges need to be free from public pressure. They need to judge the letter of the law. Sure. Ok. I buy that–but MY question is–what type of glasses are they looking through to judge those letters?

A Democrat will Judge different than a Constitutionalists. A Republican will judge differently than Libertarian.  Your foundational belief system is what you base your decisions ON for crying out loud. So how do we, as the people, know what glasses they wear currently? By consensus.

What a Croc-o-Crap.

Let me ask you good people of Utah something: How do we get the amendment to our Constitution reversed and force the Judges to be seen for who they are?

Even if you don’t know the answer to that–get off your butt and VOTE! Our country is at stake and we need control back in the hands of the people.

God Bless.

  1. I think the correct term you meant to use, sweetie, was ‘crock o pooh’.
    Glad I could help. Your welcome.

    • LOL. Gotta love her.

      Thank you my dear. I should have used that…but I actually meant was a Croc of S[censored].
      So personally I thought I made a good effort to be civil. Your idea, however, was more clever (wink).
