Mr. Hamlin,

Can you prove your assertion and if you can why not let the voters of Springfield KNOW.

People should boycott the Springfield Election Tuesday. State law requires the city to allow write in candidates. So people should not participate in an illegal activity---election.

State law allows for another election in June!

Just Do Not Vote Tuesday!

Keep in mind, Cynthia Rushefsky is the out of control assistant prosecutor who unfairly and illegally made nurse Leslie Ann Brown's life a nightmare for a couple of years when Brown had done nothing wrong. This increased government overregulation of healthcare, which increases costs and paperwork, and decreases quality of healthcare. Cynthia and Darrell Moore did little to go after the real criminals in the Dominic James case: the DFS and the foster parent that murdered James. This while allowing people who were smuggling enormous amounts of drugs through our state get away without being charged. I have no respect for Sheila Wright, as she is on the wrong side of almost every issue, but do we really want someone who is worse just because she would be someone different?
