As a resident of Rotterdam for over 20 years it's time for a clean flush of politics as usual.

I don't know the players. Don't know the backstory as to what makes them tick. Honestly don't care.

Reading articles in the newspaper about adult bickering on a regular basis is very old by now and embarrassing. As a public servant if you haven't made objective progress each and every day of your elected tenure then you have failed the people of your community. Plain and simple!

Let this serve as a recent example, because a politician, Democrat or Republican, can dig a hole and fill it with water, et al., does not mean he/she is a qualified leader or public servant.

It's time for this leadership and their collective bravado to leave. His bank account will not factor into the next election. Contrary to his belief there are other rich people in Rotterdam (living much less ostentatiously) with discretionary spending that want change.

If the blanks would come together and actually vote

The blanks could save their money and move this town forward

Couldn't agree more with the power of the ballot box theory!
Regretfully, removing money from political process is just not a realistic option.
Be grateful tho there are people out there willing to invest, FOR THE RIGHT REASONS, in propelling Rotterdam forward.

I hear there are some interesting possiblities  in the works

throw out some ideas thet would help "blanks" make a proper decision

post  the "blank" wishes

senders will tell you to follow the $$$$$

i say ask hard pointed questions

remember rotterdam is a 50/50 town - so make your choices very carefully

the party process limits true individuals

somewhere on this board is a thread about getting on a ballot  ie the number of signatures
