I am sorry I could not get back to you sooner, my power has been out like many others. This was an omen of what was to come and our future here in Oswego County. At this point in my life I am ashamed of being a Republican. I would go to being Independent but if I do I can't be an inspector for the polling place and there aren't enough to man them and I feel this would hamper our right to vote as we don't have enough people to go around as it is. You do have to be of the Republic or Democratic Party. This is wrong in my opinion as it furthers the illusion of a 2 party system. I personally would take a cut in my pay to minimum wage if it helped. If they would open up to more party's we might have more people applying to do the job. I'm getting off on a tangent but this government is no longer for the people or by the people but it is of the governments own plans. The room was filled with concerned people. Not one of them deserved to loose their job. Numerous speakers got up and ask if it could be tabled for a month or so. Lets talk about this to see if there are any other places to cut was the plea. We the people rights were squelched by the Majority leaders or at least tried to by putting demands on us of we can't do this or we can't do that. Example: Steve Lymans name came up more than once so we were told we couldn't mention names. Our pleas went on deaf ears as they were set in how they would vote. Kunswiler was our night in shining armor standing up to the majority dragon. The vote was 18 yes for the proposal and 7 NO. The list I am giving now are the ones to vote for in the coming elections. I tried to get on the County site but to no avail to add the names of the ones who voted for the proposal . Almost like they are keeping us from another right : Here are the names of candidates if they are in your district. "TO VOTE FOR" : >Lindsey >Waters >McMahon >Osphelt >Ponzi >Kunswiler >Malone Give these people your support. Let them know we appreciate them and as far as the rest "REMEMBER NOVEMBER" Marilyn Rowsey Dirk ----- Original Message ----- From: "JEAN PAYTON" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2003 4:58 PM Subject: Re: This hobby is expensive enough, don't give the legislature any ideas > Dear Marilyn: > > Well what happened at the meeting today?

Does this mean that they are all going to lose their jobs? Barbara also? What a shame that they couldn't even table for a month and take another look around where to cut corners. Were you able to read any of the letters written in defense? Well I hope all the voters in Oswego County remember this when elections come upin November. When does this new ruling take effect? What will happen to all of the records? Can the Historical Society and Genealogical Society get access to the records so that they will continue to be available? Even giving the Legislature ideas didn't seem to help. What a shame that they are so narrow minded that they wouldn't look at alternatives. Marilyn I would like the address of the ones who voted against the people (18) of them. I wish to write them to let them know how I feel. Perhaps if we all let them know that their jobs will end come November they will have second thoughts. Since I am not a voter in Oswego County I want them to know what else they are going to be doing besides cutting jobs. They in effect have doomed Oswego County.
