It makes my voting research much easier when the PBA, and Firefighters unions say who their “favorite” candidates are. No votes for anyone here!
IMO..Public service unions should be abolished…all of them. It should be illegal for anyone whose livelihood comes directly from taxing authorities to form labor unions to negotiate salary/benefits with taxpayers or their representatives…and I will not support anyone who does. It ecourages bloated government and political malfeasance everywhere public service unions exist. There are better ways to address inequities that arise in the public sector without making the employees fund dishonesty and fraud.
Nope. Vote out all incumbents.
The only decent choices made are:
Big Bend PBA:
-Brian Welch for Leon County Commission District 4 (because it’s time for new Blood)
The PBF:
NOTHING, You made no good choices.
Ya know Conservatives have their own form of “virtue signaling”.
Every time some crazy shizz goes down we can be counted on to say stuff like: ” but we still hold our Hero’s the Police and Fire Fighters in the highest regard”.
Stuff like: ” Well granted Jim Comey is a turd but we hold the rank and file FBI agents in the highest regard”.
Well you rank and file folks are making it kind of hard to retain Conservative support in these troubling times when we are all in this together when we see your union which you support endorsing NOTHING BUT LEFTISTS that probley want to de-fund you. I am modifying my support to the concept of you but not you union dues paying rank and file leftist endorsing backstabbing folks in uniform or office workers.
You dues payers have picked your side and its the hate America side. You are known by the company you keep and supporting leftist unions is no longer in your best interest. Wake up rank and file.
AMEN!!
I’ll second that AMEN! and raise you to VOTE ALL INCUMBENTS OUT!
Agreed. New “Leaders” over incumbent “followers”… I like it.
