I just get so sick of seeing unopposed local races I can't help myself from railing on the subject every now and then. And, this is the season! OK Grumps, I’ll cut you some slack.

It's that I feel well represented by this incumbent. He and I will never agree 100% but he has my interests covered far more often than some. Don't mistake my not running for not being involved. I'm still have my appointment to the Planning Committee and have been on two ad hoc committees in the past year. Add to that they annual School Board Candidates' Forum that Karen and I put on and I think my time is well spent. It’s not about running against an incumbency, Al.
