Since everyone’s finally sick of the nonstop election commercials and lies—congratulations, you survived! Now get ready for Round Two. Next April there’s another election… the local one that almost nobody bothers showing up for. Apparently tossing out the same clowns who keep jacking up your taxes just isn’t worth the five minutes it takes to vote. (Don’t worry, they’re fully counting on your apathy.)

Also, congratulations are in order for Normal. People weren’t really against the $42,000,000 underpass. None of the people complaining on social media will be on the ballot. Few bother to vote when nobody is worth voting for.

Bloomington will have options. If few bother to vote, the radical progressive candidate will win. It happens every election.
