In The News-Incumbents


Consider Your Vote
Those who seek again our vote
must too obey all laws they wrote.
They too must man the painful oars,
not merely float on pleasure boat.

Much too often in the past,
the laws they wrote gave them a pass.
Make them rejoin the common man…
eliminate their self-sculpt caste.

It’s time that they must earn their pay,
show up to vote with “yea or nay”
on only that concerning all
our incumbents earned our "Nay."
