Voting for a better candidate is always a good thing.


I think there's some mending that needs to be done. What, and how, and how long remain to be seen. If the Block 8 Representative is sensitive to that need, and handles it well, then I see little to gain by ousting him because he supported the MEC Chairman on a single issue. Even if he handles it well and restores the confidence of his constituents, if there's a better candidate next time, vote for him. But don't vote against a guy because he made one tough call that you didn't like.

i thought it was my vote, and if i decide to vote against someone for an issue as important to me as this, who are you to tell me or anyone different? isn't that MY right as a dues paying member?
