Dear F and Jimbo,

The fact that half of any population has double digit intelligence is NOTHING compared to the utter -- and utterly-unacknowledged STUPIDITY - of Democrats not going to the polls.

Assholes!

Op-Ed Columnist Many Texas cities are holding local elections tomorrow. Dallas, Fort Worth and San Antonio will all vote for mayors, while other cities will elect school boards or city councils. “People often pay close attention to national politics but fail to realize that local elections can have the largest impact on our lives,” Emily Farris and Hannah Vu of Texas Christian University recently wrote in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “We need well-funded school programs, stable and reliable infrastructure, affordable housing, a sense of safety and belonging, and all the things that make a strong community. Local elected officials are responsible for many of the things Fort Worth residents care about in the community that they love.” And yet turnout in this weekend’s elections is likely to be dreadful. When Fort Worth last voted for a mayor, two years ago, turnout was 8 percent. The people who did vote could have fit into T.C.U.’s football stadium, with room to spare, Farris and Vu pointed out. In San Antonio, which is holding both mayoral and city-council races this year, turnout may not exceed 10 percent, Bloomberg’s Jonathan Bernstein, who’s based there, predicted in his daily political newsletter. “It’s a disgrace — especially since we know exactly how to fix this problem,” Bernstein wrote.
