Just thought I would throw out an interesting fact from the City Council elections...

"Only 13.7 percent of the registered voters in Fate, voted."

Thank you Ryan Pfuhl for the actual figures.

Fate City Council Results

Well the results of the Fate City Council Election are in. It looks like "AD-gate 2009" did not have any adverse effects on the election. All candidates named in the AD won their perspective seats.

One sad item from look at the election results is the voter turnout. City Hall claims that we are at around 5000 citizens. The average votes for each election was only 398. That's only a 7% voter turnout! How sad is that? I guess the people don't care about their city.

Place 1
Kerry Wiemolky 237 61%
Autumn Lobinsky 154 39%


Place 3
Forest Murley 256 63%
Wilbur Williams 148 37%

Place 5
K.C. Erwin 217 55%
Ryan Pfuhl 117 30%
Brad Bianucci 61 15%

Place 6
Tammy Ryan 273 68%
David Hill 131 32%

Political Craziness

Someone call Fox News and CNN! There is a political scandal amidst our upcoming City Council Elections. It looks like some sneaky person out there placed an ad in the May 1st edition of the Rockwall Herald-Banner that suggested four of the candidates for Fate City Council want to raise taxes and HOA fees for residents of the Woodcreek subdivision.

The Ad was paid for with cash in person by someone claiming to be Bo Baker, (who happened to be out of town during the week the ad was placed) The sneaky ad placer even used a fake address.

The four candidates named in the ad are:

K. C. Erwing - Place 5
Tammy Ryan - Place 6
Kerry Wiemolky - Place 1
Forest Murley - Place 3

Who is this sneaky individual who is bringing big city political tactics to our little town?
