The Hamilton County Election Commission on Thursday morning voted 3-2 to set a new election for mayor of Chattanooga Aug. 2, 2012.
The action came after the Tennessee Court of Appeals threw out a decision by Circuit Court Judge Jeff Hollingsworth that stayed a recall election of Mayor Ron Littlefield.
Richard Beeland of the mayor's office said afterward, "Mayor Littlefield is exploring all legal options. There are many unanswered questions that the Hamilton County Election Commission willingly ignored. Most notably, the Election Commission failed to take into consideration the inaccuracies and inconsistencies clearly pointed out to the Circuit Court last year.
At this point, it really seems pretty pointless. More wasted money.
'Already long ago, from when we sold our vote to no man, the People have abdicated our duties; for the People who once upon a time handed out military command, high civil office, legions — everything, now restrains itself and anxiously hopes for just two things: bread and circuses.' Roman Poet Juvenal – 77 AD

mrtxstar: Mass job-killing for the sake of an ideological end is domestic terrorism. The Biden immigration plan isn't about immigration, it's about flipping Texas blue which ultimately leads to the GOP never winning another federal election ever again. No Thank you.
