Has it worked for 200 years? Are you sure?

This is what takes away from Vermont, changing nothing is not preserving anything that makes this state what it is.

There’s a way that’s worked for 200 years v one that’s already been tried and failed, that really serves no purpose. It’s like people think everyone in Burlington there for it the last time we’re just idiots.

So is there a reason you don't want this other than that there's a less efficient means that works just right for you, specifically?

Odd, it doesn’t seem to be a factor when we mail out ballots to everyone in the state and then some? No one has complained about cost?
I think IRV is a horrible idea. I did it once in Burlington already and it was a complete failure and soundly thrown to the curb afterwards. I’ve yet to hear a good reason why we should toss out a system that’s worked for two hundred years to go with one that’s been tried already and failed. If you’ve got one please share.

Edited for wording

Not at all and can't imagine anyone even saying anything. I've seen mothers pulling sleds at the ice rink also.

This, if you can find off road diesel you will save ~0.10s/gal or so. It’s the same as on-road diesel, the on road is just sold with a tax on to maintain the roads.

Cost is a factor in elections my dude it’s just not discussed very often. Your willful ignorance throughout this thread is mind blowing.

Easier to ask forgiveness than beg permission 😌 go skate and have fun with the little one.

I’ve used diesel before for my basement oil tank. No issues.

A lot of reform as in educating voters on their civic duty and the danger of party/identity politics… id agree with that. Having an instant runoff v traditional runoff… I think that’s making things worse.

Hey that's awesome advice! I'm in the NEK. It's snowing pretty decent now. I'm older now but played hockey 🏒 for many years.

Post office drives by regardless of if they’re carry a ballot.

This “article” is embarrassing. There is one source who gives a completely idiotic reason that it can’t be done yet, and they don’t bother to counter it whatsoever or seek other viewpoints. This isn’t journalism, it’s lazy propaganda.

Regardless, ranked choice voting is an incredibly simple concept and anyone arguing otherwise should be called on their obvious BS.

Well I am glad you are fine with the political situation in Vermont and America.

I think lots of reform is needed, this is a great step in the right direction.

I think you may have read my post too quickly, Try reading it again and see if you can find the word “or” in there. I’ll forgive the ad hominen attack and chalk it up to reading too quickly.

Literally explain to me what a traditional Runoff is and literally explain to me what instant runoff is. Let’s see if we can figure out the differences together.

Ok but how does that justify jail time for it? I’m not asking what the law says, I’m asking how you yourself justify thinking that jail is an appropriate punishment.

Thanks for the reply! There’s usually nobody at the rinks around so hopefully it wouldn’t be any sort of issue! I’ll be sure to wipe the wheels off.

It would be nice to just get the one instead of wasting the fuel to deliver multiple ones in the event of a run off.

You really should call. Every time she takes the baby outside, he's in danger from all that fresh air. I mean, what if he chokes!?

It’s kind of like say if it isn’t broke, don’t fix it. And it was tried before and then immediately soundly rejected 🤷🏼‍♂️. History is predictive

Talk who ever manages the rinks.

Excellent, there’s no issue getting and casting a ballot if you want own then

We just went to the Union ice rink in Woodstock. People use Walkers there with wheels to learn to skate so if those don’t do serious damage to the ice then the same would apply to a stroller. If there is anyone around from the town ask them otherwise I would just go ahead and use it after wiping the Wheels off first. If anyone objects (which I doubt they will unless you are zooming around knocking into people at high speed) then you can plead your case then or leave.

All are in demand.

I’m about 15 min from Burlington and pretty tuned in with both commercial and residential. I can give you some contacts in each trade if it’s helpful. Feel free to shoot me a pm with any/all questions.
