Almost Over!

Tomorrow is Election Day and that is most welcome. After the votes are counted, we will receive a brief respite from the political slandering while the politicians lick their wounds, gather up more money, polish their lies and prepare for the fall general elections. On the local scene, we have Proposition F, a plan to allow an Indian casino in Glenn County. What I most found interesting was the fact that during the past few weeks, each day’s mail brought us a large and colorful “No on F” flyer and an equally large and colorful “Yes on F” one. OK, who’s paying for these? Not the names printed on the flyer; that’s a sham, but who is behind those committees with all of the money needed to produce and mail these flyers? To be honest, I don’t think there’s enough money in Glenn County to produce the volume of “Pro” and “Anti” casino mail we’ve seen.
