Unofficially - It Must Be the Signs

Gaithersburg Unofficial Results for City Council
Ahmed Ali - 917
Shawn Ali - 460
Jud Ashman - 2,241 [Direct Mail Guy - "Jud"]
Cathy C. Drzyzgula - 2,418 [Home School Mom - "Dracula"]
Wilson Lee Faris - 982
Carlos Solis - 993
Ryan Spiegel - 2,000 [Mr. Ambitious - "Uber Democrat"]
The most unqualified candidates, Jud & Cathy, won. Grrrreat! Am I surprised? Nope. Good signs. The honest man and all foreigners--real or perceived--got smoked.

File under "democracy in action": 3,562 voters cast ballots out of 24,461 registered voters, or 14.5%. Voter turnout in the 2005 City of Gaithersburg election was 9.6%.

Whatever.
