Election filing deadline is today
An exciting day to say the least. So far I'm running unopposed for a seat on the DCC. Of course, that can change at any moment from now until 9 PM tonight. I can't wait until tomorrow so I can decide what kind of campaign I'm going to be running. If I'm unopposed, I'm going with the kinder, gentler can't we all just get along and work together kind of campaign. If there is opposition, I'm leaning towards the throw the incumbents out sort of angle. Which should win me A LOT of friends in the old timers good old boy network. Decesions, decisions. I still can't get past the irony of all of this. Chris Bowers went the DCC route in Pennsylvania and I honestly had never considered it until the Young Democrats came to me and said we needed to take over. We actually have our vacation planned during the Primary election day, so Dianne and I will be on the beach when my election day comes around. Which is fine with me, I'm not a big fan of all the stress of elections anyway. I've got my absentee ballot request, I'll get it in and vote for myself before I leave. I can't imagine why anyone would actually go to the polling places on election day with no fault absentee ballots available. No depending on a crazy Diebold voting machine to try and "remember" what your vote was. No you have a solid piece of paper that can be recounted and observed by a human being. Anyway, I'm ranting. I'll make all my decisions tomorrow about which direction I'm going. Dianne already has the Jamison gear all mocked up. I'm definitely going to have to get a couple of T-shirts and Polos with my name on them, just for vanity's sake. If you're anywhere in Maryland and you hate how the Democratic party has been dropping the ball, please go down and run for DCC today. For $10, you too can poke the establishment Democrats in the eyeball for fun.

Well if I don't have an opponent there is no need for a website. So that decision will come tonight after the final list of candidates comes available.

Now that you do have an opponent it would seem that your going to have to put together a web site.
