With the Bernie Sanders/Hillary race and contested offices on the Democratic side, I expect better participation than that.   As far as your position on lying about party affiliation, I'm more pragmatic than Quixotic; or, maybe I'm just an amoral opportunist.   I am Really,  Really,  unhappy with our tax and  spend  'Republican' Commissioners, Faye Stewart and Sid Leiken, though.  (Did I mention why I'm voting against them?   Don't worry, I will be reiterating my position every time they run for election or re-election for any public office.  Commissioner Bozievich will also receive my attention next time I see his name on the ballot, as well.
