I've set up this diary as a place for anyone to experiment with making comments. So, use it as you wish! The first few comments are mine.
Hey! Last day to vote for Washblog on Koufax
....for Best State or Local blog
at:
Wampum
Lots of others there, too. Votes are by comment.
n/t means (at least I think I've figured it out) "no text."
People do that when they want to make a quick comment that shows up only in the title -- and they want others to save their time, not click to open the comment when there's nothing there.
Bellevue, Washington: According to the Public Disclosure Commission website Jennifer Robertson, a candidate for Bellevue City council, received $6000.00 from the Eastside Business Alliance. The group claims on their website "The purpose of the Eastside Business Alliance is to foster in East King County a political climate in which elected officials know and understand the challenges faced by today's business community." However, it appears that the alliance is more interested in controlling the political climate in this case. "I think voters will draw their own conclusions about relationships in politics, I am running a clean campaign and offer voters a home-grown alternative" said Betina Finley who is also running for the seat left open by Phil Noble who died this past June. East side voters are grappling with potential light rail alignment issues, heliports downtown and a $133 million dollar capital budget shortfall. Also in the race for position 7, is Mike Creighton who was appointed to temporarily fill the open seat.
