I'm still miffed by the poor attendance in Brown County this year. According to the county by county results last year, there were 152 in attendance. What happened that there was an 80% drop from last year to this year? Some of that can be attributed to online voting, but surely not all of it?!
I'll be interested to see what the head count shows up as for this year, whether they will count those who showed up for the random verifiable number and left. It will also be interesting to see how those online votes shape up, and how much clout they're given. Maybe GB folks are down about the Packers. Seriously though, that is pretty pathetic attendance. We had some people show up just for a number, then go home to vote. I don't get the point of that. Online voters can't vote for delegates or resolutions, so why would people show up just to get a number and then scurry home..

I'm afraid that online voting will be the beginning of the end. There was a huge drop at the Sheboygan meeting, even the warden mentioned it, lowest numbers ever. And the average age of the crow keeps getting higher. Yep. That was expressed by some top brass at our meeting too. It'll go to 100% online I think within 6 years. Maybe the NCAA game hurt attendance.

Folks coming to the meeting to get a code to vote online could stay to vote on citizen resolutions and elections of delegates if they wanted. Other benefit is they get included in the county total versus statewide total.
Can we explore the benefits of providing input online for the Congress?

DNR reps on the stage are really lacking In knowledge when It comes to explaining things. The wild life biologist didn't have a clue on any trapping related questions.
But when Bruce got up and asked the audience Why cannibals didn't eat clowns was priceless. Because they taste funny. LOL
