Anyone thinking of running for office next year?

[alexwcovington]

It's time to be deciding for all levels of office being picked next November. Are you ready to throw in your hat?

1. I would love to

2. No biggy

Just go for a low level job first...to learn the ropes

5. No Way

Nobody who has ever had any fun in their life
can run for office anymore --
unless they are a born-again fundie christian
running as a Republican
Then anything goes.

8. Hey, I'll barely be 18 next year

And I'm still shooting for the state house. It's small, but it'll be a big enough step -- especially considering how tough North Dakota is to Democrats.

3. Hey Alex...

Where are you from in North Dakota?

I've lived in Fargo, Bismarck, Linton, and Valley City.

[HEyHEY]

4. I know you were speaking to Alex...

But how do you live in all three at once? WHo collect syour property tax?

[dobak]

6. huh?

What do you mean, all three at once?

There are 4 towns listed, but I did not live in all of them at the same time.

I lived in ND for 25 years. We moved rather often.

9. Minot and Grand Forks

Plenty of family in Bismarck though.

10. Running this year

Township Clerk in suburban Cincinnati. It's a lot of fun, but a lot of work.

[alexwcovington]

11. Clerk?

Wow, they elect everything out there!

[Jeff in Cincinnati]

12. More Accurate Title

would be Treasurer -- the Clerk is the township's financial officer.

[UrbScotty]

13. Kent County, MI, elects a clerk, treasurer...

...prosecutor, sheriff, and drain commisioner. All of these positions are partisan, too. And Republicans hold all of them. x(

14. I am

going to run for the NH House - again. I lost in 2002 on the first try.
