Posted: Thu Sep 07, 2017 10:37 pm
Collected enough signatures to qualify to be placed on the upcoming November election ballot, but the King County Clowncil voted to NOT to allow it to be on the November ballot. ...
During the votes, several voters, not being recognized by the clowncil took it upon themselves to talk over the voices of the clowncil exclaiming "Why are OUR voices not being heard!" Joe McDermott saved Democracy by calling the protestors out of order.
Clowncil Member Jeanne Kohl-Welles (yeah, a hyphenated woman ) said since the initiative had not been discussed at a scheduled public meeting yet....(it's on the schedule for Sept 6) it would therefore "circumvent the will of the voters and not allow adequate time for their input to be heard"
O-o-o-o kay... But the public meeting is still AHEAD of the ballot and vote...right? You think, Jea-nne (did I put the hyphen inn the right place Jea-nne?) that it takes a MONTH for the small percentage of voters that are able to attend the town hall meeting to digest the information disseminated therefrom?
