being local, I think they have a lot more contact with the populace as a whole. I know the head of our department here is a republican, and finding that out blew away all presuppositions I had. She is beyond fair and non-partisan, as is everyone in her department. I've had dealings with them twice... once when I was panicked my vote wouldn't be counted.

Now, that doesn't say anything about those that have been put into place since 2020 and the magas trying to rig things in their favor. It's just that at least some of these people take their jobs and their duties very seriously, and are more than helpful when problems arise, regardless of who you are.

Now, ask me about sending it to my legislature, and I'll tell you I don't trust them any further than I can throw them... and these days, that's a lot shorter distance than it used to be!
