I'm in the same boat, Griff. The republicans have had a stranglehold on this county forever. Kids are taught from a young age if they don't register Republican they will embarrass their parents and kill any chance of getting a government job, or anyone at the courthouse/county seat to listen to their problems.

Quite often looking at the ballot for things like school board or a minor office, you see the same name under both parties. WTF? Democrats are way too underfunded to get their position on anything even heard. Want to help that outsider run for office, put a democrat's sign in your yard? It would be a shame if your cousin with the three crippled children and widowed mother, lost his county job. But after all, dynasties must be protected.
