Voting Nov. 4th

November 04, 2008 By: Rod Category: City Elections, General Elections, Hickory Creek City Elections, Lake Dallas City Elections, Runoff Elections

All indications show the voter turnout will be higher than the last elections. With the increased time for early voting being most likely the key factor. This helps correct the fact that when there is bad weather on election day, many people do not come. With the early voting, and generally good weather across the US today, voter turnout will be great!

Of course there are many sites, and a mirad of TV channels to check on how things are going. So we will not go into any election coverage. But when its over, we will update the current political positions page, and expand links to contact our representatives.

We hope you do not leave politics just because the elections will be over. I personally feel we are entering a new era. We as a nation, need to keep in touch with our elected officials, even when we don’t personally need something done by them. Try and keep abreast of what is being decided by our representatives, and let them know how you feel in a nice letter, fax, or email.

Politicians only are very often reactive, they are like us, they only fix the squeaky wheel. But if we as a community let them know how we feel on the issues that they are facing, they will know at least we are watching.

We at LCIG will attempt to keep abreast of what they are doing, but we do need some help. If you follow any of the local politics, attend the town council meetings on a regular basis, or follow either the Texas house and senate, we could use your help. Just use the contact US page and let me know how you can help us all keep up with whats going on in our local, state and nation.
