Posting

I noticed, having been away from posting for a while, the method for posting has evolved. For one, I have to be careful about corrections. I now make corrections quickly rather than wait until the end of the post to correct my mistakes. As a result, the post take a little while longer.

Hello, Welcome to my Blog

I am writing about my experiences on the campaign trail. I am running for the office of County Recorder of Floyd County,  Indiana on the Democrat ticket. The election is on Tuesday, November 6,2012.  I hope you vote!

I was unopposed in the may primary for the position and I thank the Democrat party of Floyd County for their confidence in my candidacy. I will be posting my thoughts here and hope that you will take the time to read them.My first post follows.

City Clerk's Race

     I am thankful for the support and encouragements I received on the campaign trail. I thank you for your vote. The lack of coverage of the race or any debates speaks to how little importance is attached to the race.   Only the Tribune Evening News thought the race was important to cover. Personally, I am happy to be the first man to run for the office since New Albany became a first class city in 1948.

     The issue concerning the City  Clerk's race is should gender define an elected office? Women only?My position is no public  elected office should be defined by gender. A person should be able to run for any office regardless of gender.

    The City Council meeting s should be broadcast and available on line by speech recognition software. This will give the citizens the opportunity to know what goes on at the meetings.  

     The City Clerk's website should be updated and made user friendly. Plus more meeting minutes and other documents need to be posted on line to give the public an idea of how our government is functioning.

      Please vote tomorrow. Vote for Maury Goldberg for City Clerk.

City Council Meeting, March 18, 2010

I was not in attendance this evening. I promised my wife that I would go to see Patrick Henry Hughes speak at the Jeffersonville Township Library this evening. The man and his family are amazing.

However, when I learned what transpired at the meeting tonight shook my head and uttered the phrase: "What A Joke"!

Good Night Y'all.

School Board

I came away with the understanding the School Board had two options and one recommendations to decide. One, Layoff teachers, school staff, administrators etc. The second option was a proposal for a referendum to vote on increasing school taxes. The recommendations various proposals to save monies did not require school board approval. I came away with the impression this was a take it or leave it deal.
