While it's a great tool - you don't get a complete sapmle ballot for your area - so in some ways you actually go to the polling place less informed ("I didn't know there was a school board or water district race..."). In 6 states (CA, IL, MD, MN, OH & PA) only www.evoter.com gives voters not just their polling place, but a complete interactive ballot listing every single and ballot measure candidate that you will see on your ballot - and where candidates can post profiles and organizations can post their endorsements.

We need a change. These present numb skulls including Diane Watts are just too comfortable and have begun to care corporate and lining their pockets. While they go laughing to the bank end of each pay cheque they make us tighten our pockets and levy further taxes. The Trans-link forceful levy and the 2 cent gas tax is a joke.While we pay these jokers in office burden us with their transport expenses.The long timers warming our city hall chairs are too complacent and have become as dumb as the City Hall door knob. Linda, Marvin,Barbara, Mary,Tom and Barinder have become totally useless to our needs.They seem to have the media support on front pages to etch onto peoples minds to influence voters votes. The community papers The Now and The Leader are also culprits to influence results.Hope to see the change and have new Candidates as Stephanie and Paul Hillsdon and younger blood.Cheers and good luck. cheap car insurance cheap auto insurance

Jonathan, I have to take issue with one of your comments. There is no “enemy of my enemy” here. I’ve seldom met a Republican I’ve agreed with 100%, and to be sure it’s no secret a considerably smaller percentage of Democrats. BUT, I’m a Tea Party girl at heart and have to examine each situation as it comes. I will always side with the ones closest to my principles even if they are yards apart, rather than let the ones win that are miles apart. I’ll do my best to know the character of the school board members and candidates by word and deed, voting out the corruption accordingly…while praying my conservatives friends will eventually step up and get into the game. We have only ourselves to blame for not introducing like-minded people. Until then, I choose the better of our candidates.There’s too much at stake in this election with a new superintendent, business administrator and director of personnel search to be uninvolved. If the politically minded candidates win this election, our school system will continue to plummet. cheap car insurance affordable car insurance

Mr. Price, I appreciate that you comment under your own name. Some of us, for various reasons, feel as though we cannot without having repercussions come back against us or ours. But I’m reading your posts and you rarely mention quality of education. It’s all about politics, and by extension, doing exactly what the Dems are doing now.Sure, I get that the BOE is a political entity. But at what point does good governance trump politics? How will the conservative principles to which you subscribe translate into readying Pennsauken’s students for the global economy? I subscribe to being slightly left of center, by the way. But those of us who are non-partisan are not lying to ourselves. We see the partisan politics for what they are, two clubs trying to gain access to the stream of tax dollars and jobs that the BOE and the township represent. Those of us who are non partisan are trying to look out for the district and township as whole. Our loyalty is to governance, not political party. state auto insurance a auto insurance

For the record – Stephanie James-Wilson has shown herself to be an independent voice and an education first member of the BOE. The party first team, by endorsing her, was trying to make her beholden to them so she would have to vote with them on party issues. Integrety matters, and she has it. She will not jeopardize her career to make the party first board members happy. She earned our endorsement with her actions and that really messed up the D’s plan because she is not beholden to them.Unlike Dr Meloni, Patricia Hinnant has been active in the PTA and has attended BOE meetings for 20 years. She too has integrety and will put education first. Kyle Williams is young and a quick study.Our candidates are not beholden to us and they will not be conflicted when it comes time to vote on BOE matters. AND THAT MATTERS.

I do not believe we have poor quality of education in our district, only poor results. The educators do a fantastic job and I would put the majority of the blame on parental cooperation. I do not identify myself as a Republican, but rather a Conservative first. Conservatism focuses on free market capitalism, personal responsibility, and small government. I honestly don’t know what individual decisions are being made by the school board, but if these principals are applied they will bring a better result for the success of our students. The term “Global Economy” amuses me. It’s just the latest silly buzz word to get people to rally around. Countries have been trading goods and services since people were able to travel to do so. car insurance online affordable auto insurance

Few incumbents favour ban on corporate contributions

A recent Fair Vote Canada survey of 474 city councillors and mayors in Ontario’s 42 largest cities (other than Toronto) found only 35 city councillors and two mayors willing to support a ban on corporate and union campaign contributions in municipal elections (see list here) – a ban already instituted in many jurisdictions in Canada.

Why is predisclosure important?

Candidates are not obliged to make their election contributions public until five months after the election. Candidates who voluntarily disclose the contributions received two weeks prior to the election demonstrates transparency to potential voters. 

Email or ask your candidates at a public debate if they intend to pre-disclose and let voters know how much and from whom they have collected money.

In Toronto you should also ask candidates whether they will support continuing the by-law that bans corporate and unions from making contributions to candidates for election.
