featherynscaleNote to KC MO folks planning to vote in today's elections:
1) Regarding the term limit questions on the ballot, the current status is that these folks are limited to two terms. That wasn't really clear from reading the wording of the term limit questions (one of which would increase the limit to three consecutive terms, the other of which would abolish term limits altogether).
2) The question on petitions to recall is asking to make the rules on petitioning more strict. The wording on the ballot makes it unclear whether or not folks in Kansas City currently have the right to petition for a recall at all. Apparently, we do.
3) I have no idea what the question on repealing the 20 articles of the charter to replace them with 13 articles means, either.
Also, here's the obligatory "Vote, you bastards!".
