Nobody knows how the Lancaster School District bond election, the beer-and-wine package sales initiative or the Lancaster City Charter amendments contest will be affected by the general election.
In the six and one-half years I’ve been here, it’s the first time a proposition has fallen on a November general election ballot. There are several ways this could play out.
If local voters are in an anti-government mood, it could work against both the school bond and the charter election (the latter of which I think is going to drop like a rock anyway). Beer and wine are counting on the general election to help their cause, but I don’t really see them overcoming the 62-38 losing margin of 2004.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
