12 great movies this Sat. only at KIFF film fest--from aliens to evil Monsanto to sneak peek six weeks early of the Churchill movie: Darkest Hour. Free ticket offer!!
KIFF film fest Fri night opener: High School 9-1-1, where Darien CT teens run ambulance service on deadly interstate! Glenwood Arts 5:30, one showing only
Experience a heart-stopping, inspirational year with Darien EMS-Post 53, the only ambulance service for the 20,000 residents of Darien, Connecticut, as it covers one of the deadliest stretches of Interstate-95, responds to over 1,500 emergency calls, and is run by high school teenagers.The foundation of Darien EMS 53 is the empowerment of young people through adult and peer mentorship. Posties are taught a multitude of managerial, critical thinking and emergency medical skills and then empowered by being given the responsibility to implement what they have learned by actually running their own EMS organization. The goal of the film is to inspire and empower young people as well as motivate the adults in their lives: parents, educators, school administrators, community leaders to create opportunities for them to learn by doing and make a difference in their communities.

| Call friends and government officials to come meet filmmaker Friday at 5:30, 95th & Mission (lower level/Ranchmart), one showing only at Glenwood Arts, first film of this year's KIFF-- Kansas Intl Film Festival. What if we started doing this in Kansas City and suburbs? |

Desperate stealth campaign for NewKCI can be beat! From $1 million now $1.6 million, including extorted $ from Edgemoor without contract. And Southwest refuses to admit their ruse to leave town.
The campaign manager for Yes on NewKCI is in HideFromThePublic mode. Mark Nivens of The Dover Group ("I work for Sly James"), is furiously and very PRIVATELY courting the 18% of KCMO residents who even use KCI.
With polling in a statistical dead heat (just 51%), his strategy is to give up on changing minds. Just browbeat the silk stocking districts 4 and 6 (river to 435, State Line to Troost) into voting yes.
The Yes campaign is bloated with cash and hopelessly short of time. They reported today (at a Chamber Centurion (brainwashing/KumBaYahhhhh) campaign update session which did not allow discussion of Burns&Mac corruption or Sly James' mismanagement) that they now have soared to $1.6 million in campaign slush, which will be spent at a preposterous rate of "96% direct voter contact"!!!!""
Plus, his fees, of course. Which might also kick back, eventually, to Nevins' perpetual sugar daddy boss, Sly James, for future campaigns. Or who knows? Perhaps a lifetime salary or stipend of payoffs since James is a lame duck with no future jobs on the horizon.
So what do the desperate business and labor goons get for their $1.6 million?
(Higher by far than the $900,000 they just forked over to pass 123GO Bonds)--
Well, off the top, cash bribes of $65,000 to Freedom (they clearly sold out too cheap)
and now 10 promised postcard mailers (deforestation of three counties in Missouri)
leaves what:
4% for TV, since that is NOT "direct voter contact".
This NewKCI campaign is a desperate effort to fool SOME of the people (18%) some of the time.
The late Steve Glorioso begged Sly James to wait till April to run this campaign.
The council delayed, insisting that the public wanted to know who the contractor was.
(Sly was stubborn--he and cohort in crime Jolie Justus rammed thru Burns & Mac, financed by Mike Merriman's dinky insurance company downtown--worth only $6 billion and no airport experience, strutting around claiming they could easily finance $1 billion?)
Enter Southwest Airlines. Their threat is proving hollow.
They secretly told Sly James that if he didn't get this done this November, they would PULL FLIGHTS FROM KCI.
Yet today it was revealed, Southwest is unwilling to hold a press conference to say that.
Their rush job was clearly a big bluff. No way is Southwest gonna piss off KCI passengers before Christmas! And they're not leaving, giving up their Russian fist style control of half of our gates. In fact, their long term goal, in cutting down the gates to 35 from 68 we own now, and offering to finance the bonds, is to drive OTHER airlines away! And drive up rates. Holding us hostage.
So stick with the strategy:
If someone phones you (or knocks on your door), LIE and say, "Of course I'm voting yes!"
Then gather friends and family and go to the polls Tuesday Nov. 7 and VOTE NO.
The city will be forced to come back with a much better plan.
YOU CAN DO THIS!

| Is Southwest Airlines hiding something from its captive KCI passengers?? Do they want to hold us hostage to huge fare increases??And what's so hard about fixing the bathrooms?
That doesn't cost $536 million.
A handyman from your church could do that...

Voters WILL defeat corrupt NewKCI. How Bartle Hall passed by 18 votes thanks to Bernice and the Good Old Girls
This just in, on Ch. 41 news:
Edgemoor donated $60,000 toward the YES campaign, which has raised $1 million.
They do not have a signed contract with the city.
So is this a case of extortion by the campaign committee? (I am implying that it is!--one more use to go...)
This whole campaign stinks. I love that the YES people, Sly and the council and labor and Freedom, and the contractor are so uncertain about the virtue of their proposal that they are throwing $1.6 million bucks (this just in as of 9:30 am 10/27/17 per Mark Nevins the yes vote campaign chairman).
The polls must be showing it is losing or close to losing.
When you get your nightly polling phone calls, push whatever numbers on your phone you must to IMPLY that you are on board with this pig of a proposal. Then in the privacy of the voting booth, vote NO.
The pollsters will INFER that you are for it. Ha!
You are so close to defeating this. Mike White won his county commission seat by one vote. We call him Mandate Mike.
And Bartle Hall passed by 18 votes, but those were kinda stolen votes. Back in the day, they had real machines with wheels. Sometimes reading the numbers on the wheels was in question. So my former business partner, politico Jerry Jette, (who taught Pat Gray EVERY trick in the book) was dispatched by Mayor Wheeler to go to the election board while the election staff peered at the numbers stuck halfway between a higher and a lower number.
Jette knew EXACTLY how many votes he needed. Fourteen. And gave himself a cushion of four more. He flirted with the old gals in the Election Board office, "Hi Bernice--how's your son George doing? I hope that summer job we got for him helped you out! He hugged, he cajoled, and he counted. All the while, Bernice and Agnes and Carmella and the Good Old Girls from Redemtorist Parish and St. Elizabeths were deciding--is that a 7 or a 6?
"Jerry, I think...hmmmm...(dramatic pause and a wink) I'm gonna say it's a 7!"
"Good girl, Bernice!"
Of course it was completely arbitrary. Like hanging chad in Florida. No money changed hands. It was all flattery and comraderie and friendship and years and years spent at neighborhood parishes and St. Patrick's Day events and St. Joseph's tables, etc.
The minute Jette scored 18 more votes, he said, "Gotta meet the Mayor at Italian Gardens for lunch!" Hugs all around.
And that is how the city of KCMO won that election to build Bartle Hall on a cold December day.
So what's a little white lie to a phone surveyor or someone knocking on your door.
Vote NO and force the city to come back with a much BETTER PLAN. They are IMPLYING they will just give up for the next 50 years. That's bullshit.
Vote No for something better.

Lie to any phone pollsters. Claim you are voting YES on KCI. Then phone 3 voting friends. Vote NoNov.7. This can be accomplished as underground campaign.
It's clear that the city of KCMO has gone over the cliff--and cannot be relied upon to support its citizens. They have sold you out and are in LaLaLand listening to wind chimes they ordered (on your credit card) from Amazon.
YOU can defeat the poor plan for KCI--with a DIY underground railroad campaign.
This has been done before, when we the taxpayers defeated the bloated giveaway to multi-millionaires that would have been BiStateII. And we did it again when we the taxpayers defeated the even crazier Big Soccer giveaway to multi-millionaires.
We had no signs. In each campaign, we spent a total of $12,000 on postcards, thanks entirely to Taxpayer Crusader and movie maker Phillip Klein, and my working for free to badger the news media and respond to news outlets and demand the opposition voice be heard.
It's all about voter turnout.
One household, one neighbor at a time. Call three friends and meet with three neighbors--but make sure first of all that they are even registered to vote... Get them to promise to vote, and follow up with them. Drive them if need be. Support one another in voting NO. Make a homemade yard sign. Or not. (See below).*
The good news? Steve Glorioso is dead. The Yes campaign has written a big ass check to Big Ass Jeff Roe--who is doing nothing but eating Twinkies. Just like Steve Glorioso and Pat Gray, many times those so-called politicos are paid off just to keep them from working for the opposition. That appears to be the case this time.
More good news: Channel 9's Micheal Mahoney is starting to challenge the preposterousness of the YES folks' lies--that KC "needs" more flights. And so is the only decent reporter at the STAR: Steve Vockrodt. When the ballot issue would build just 35 gates, down from the 68 we own, and the 45 we currently operate.
Clearly, the Edgemoor "tossed salad/copycat plan" is a copy of the Burns & Mac Trojan Horse. Build LESS but call it more. And just keep lying through your teeth to the voters and the cowed KCMO City Council and the naive news media--and hope you can squeak through.
It's pretty obvious to a third grader that if they were so sure they're gonna win, they wouldn't need to send out postcards that lie.
So here's another secret strategy: If you get a phone call from an anonymous survey company? LIE RIGHT BACK AT THEM. TELL THEM YOU ARE VOTING YES! The voting booth is still secret--I don't think Russians have found Kansas City Missouri yet.
*Take the yard sign that the Yes committee offers you--and hide it in your garage-- till after election day. That milks them out of $3.95 hustled from the Gimme coalition. Don't trash it till AFTER the election.
We can do this. How do you think slavery got outlawed? The underground railroad. Long before the Lying Ass KCI Contraction Billed as an Expansion.

| Never underestimate the power of determined people to saved a loved one. In this case, KCI that needs remodelling, not destruction. Load your voting friends in your car--and VOTE NO! Find a way! No need to advertise it. Just GitErDone. |

| These folks are not running from a distant parking garage to catch a flight at a new, far-less-convenient KCI, where folks are herded like cattle for the convenience of cheap airlines cramming us into their 14 inch wide seats. Nope, these are voters voting NO on November 7! Because that is the message we need to send to the bought-and-paid-for KCMO City Council. BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD! WE ARE ONTO YOUR SLUMLORD TACTICS! Stop letting our convenient airport run down. Fix the bathrooms at Southwest Airlines! And stop lying to the voters that building 35 gates rather than the 45 we operate now and the 68 we OWN, would be "progress"!!! |

James B. Nutter's final resting place: EAST OF TROOST! Visitation/ aka wake: Wed. 5-8pm, Unity Temple on Plaza. Funeral, Thurs.10a at Country Club Christian, 6101 Ward Pkwy. McGilley's Midtown coordinating
This just in--
the fine folks at McGilley's Midtown are coordinating services for James B. Nutter Sr. Since a huge crowd is expected they selected two large venues.
WED. JULY 12
5-8PM
Unity Temple on the Plaza
707 W. 47th
5-8pm
This is a "visitation", rather than a formal religious ceremony.
Folks pass by the casket, (optional) then gather in small groups for refreshments and sharing of memories, informally. (Catholics call it a wake.)
THURS. JULY 13
10AM (Approx. one hour)
Country Club Christian
6101 Ward Parkway
This will be a formal church ceremony
with a program, a sign-in book, and list of key speakers and music.
Burial of the casket will be immediately after that, 11:30am, Forest Hill Calvary Cemetery--
6901 Troost.
So imagine that, folks! From a great man who loved and served and shaped the future of Jackson County his whole life:
A classic Jim Nutter move--he will be buried EAST OF TROOST!
Expect parking to be in short supply!
Our hometown funeral experts, McGilley's Midtown, did a sensational job last summer for Dutch Newman, who was celebrated and loved by so many of the same folks. Dutch's sendoff was at Visitation Catholic on Main. And of course, James B. Nutter was there--greeted in his wheelchair by all, photographed by me and of course, Mayor Dick Berkley. A who's who for Kansas City and Democrat politics. And a motorcycle patrol of 14 of Jackson County's finest men in blue.

Burns&Mac running false radio ads on 4 stns! Deceives public! Lobbies KCMO Council for their NoBid "New KCI"!! Goals: a) avoid public vote b) skim addl $140M financing profits and c) head off Katy Shields' smarter plan: local revenue bonds
Bottom line: if Burns & Mac will lie to the public NOW, what else will they conceal? Or attempt to sneak past the KCMO City Council?
This is a clear case of deceptive lobbying. Burns and Mac is spending thousands of dollars on what's called The Assumed Close.
They struck their deal with Mayor Sly James. It's been blocked. The council wisely caved into public pressure, to at least invite a few others to bid. And best of all, Katy Shields came up with a better plan, selling Airport Revenue Bonds, which will save the taxpayers $140 million in interest, since public bonds are sold at a lower interest rate than what Burns and Mac's secret moneybags, Michael Merriman at Americo will charge rich investors, (eg backers of Sly James).
But who would be surprised at the temerity of telling an untrue outcome? At B&M's IGNORING the facts that is, their Pearl Harbor sneak attack to spend a billion bucks to build a SMALLER airport may have been thwarted??
Who would be surprised at Burns and Mac now lobbying falsely by running radio spots AS IF THEY ALREADY WON AND BUILT THE "NEW KCI"??????
The splash page of Burns and McDonnell's own website is our first clue to an altered sense of integrity. It starts with some X-files worthy music, and this apocryphal quote:
It can happen right before your eyes.
And at first, you might not even notice.
I hate liars. So when I heard this unsourced radio spot on my favorite station, 980 KMBZ, claiming the city already built a new KCI, paid by Burns & Mac, I investigated. Because the FCC says all spots must make it clear, who paid for them. This one doesn't.
Turns out it IS Burns and Mac paying the bill. But could just as easily have been a lobbying group promoted and funded by their benefactor, Sly James. Or Michael Merriman at Americo Insurance, the secret financier who hides from all reporters, and stands to make $140 million in higher bond rates.
Burns & Mac has 5 registered lobbyists, according to James Klahr, Director of the Missouri Election Commission. He shared with me, Missouri law is very weak on disclosures--re issues coming up on a ballot or a candidate: just for printed materials.) But the FCC says on every spot in America for any purpose: reveal to the public, (which owns the airwaves), exactly who is paying to dish out this narrative, in this case, a false one.
The spot states, "...in 2017, Kansas City made history, with the first ever privately built airport in the nation...built and financed locally...every pilot is talkin' about that new privately built KCI..."
It's simply not true! It's wishful lobbying.
Listen here: KCI Pilot radio spot on
4 Entercom stations
The spots are airing this week and next, thousands of dollars on a heavy schedule on four major Entercom radio stations: AM 980 KMBZ; 98.1FM (think EJ& Ellen and Dana and Parks); KCSP610 Sports, and 98.9 KQRC the Rock (Johnny Dare et al) .

| Mike Merriman's Americo Life secret downtown financing partner for Burns and Mac's No Bid billion dollar, smaller"New KCI". He may have paid Burns & Mac to run the false radio spots. After all, if he snags this No Bid contract, he makes an extra $140 million, because private investments earn 1 1/2 to 2% more interest per year than publicly financed Airport Revenue Bonds. |

Safety alert! Westport now charging $5 for covered parking, hiring attendants--and more guards!
This just in: the REAL news is Westport is so unsafe the merchants have panicked to keep the law abiding customers more safe from crazed druggies and drunks and Bernie Sanders voters out to wreak havoc.
Their FAKE news story is: Whoa, Yea, "We're finding better, safer ways to park your automobile."
I got the flier last night at the awesome movie theatre, The Tivoli.
Starting June 16, parking in the covered lot by the CharBar, which serves the Tivoli and a health club, on Friday and Saturday nights, parking is $5--in advance!
(No more broken toll gates from drunks bursting out of the lot late at night like the James Gang or Johnny Lazio at the Union Station Massacre.) At $100 per broken gate, the cost for GateGate was prohibitive.)
And the good news for me is, with a stamp at the Tivoli boxoffice when I purchase my movie ticket, the parking attendant will then REFUND my PREPAID $5
IF AND WHEN
I safely EXIT the covered AND NOW PATROLLED parking lot.
That is generous, and I appreciate it. Jerry Herrington at the Tivoli runs by far the best art house movie theatre in the metro. Tho I am also partial to Brian Mossman at Glenwood Arts and the Rio, home to my favorite film festival KIFF, Nov 3-9.
As to the FAKE NEWS flier announcing the parking fees:
Put out by what is now called the Westport REGIONAL Business League, aka westportkcmo.com.
(Are they part of NATO? Not sure. Must ask Lecron or Angela Merkel, I guess.)
The flier sweetly recalls Westport's origins showing a covered wagon. Claiming a shortage of parking because--oh brother this is a stretch--"Westport's street grid and its buildings were made for wagons and walkers--not cars."
Go find Daniel Boone or Jim Bridger or anyone still inside Kelly's who hasn't left that bar since 1833. Buy 'em a drink if they say that's why Westport needs armed guards and paid parking.
It's BULLSHIT PR. The reason Westport merchants need armed guards and more lighting and parking lot attendants in bulletproof vests is CRIME. Wilding. Gangs of Angry Yutes who don't want to shoot hoops with Sly James, but prefer to menace dating couples out for a Friday or Saturday night date. Same as the Country Club Plaza.
The supporting false claim in the flier is:
40% of Westport's patrons use taxis or Uber to get to their favorite establishment in Old Westport.
?????Prove it.
If you believe this statistic, you believe Donald Trump's inaugural crowd was the biggest ever.
And KC has 25 million tourists a year.
And 5,000 people a day ride the Toy Train,
and would like to maraud their merry way to Westport and Main by voting this summer for ToyTrainII, and marching drunk and en masse down Westport Road until ToyTrain III builds another extension line.
(And just for the record, isn't OLD Westport that aging strip center half a mile west, at the Southwest Trafficway with the covered wagon? And a drive thru coffee shop? Obviously the Westport "Regional" Business "League" hired a copy writer who is not from here. Perhaps they're "regional".)
Question: Did Uber pay to be in this flier? Ask Julian Assange. Or Chelsea Manning. They have all the facts.
Be safe out there. KCMO is a summer war zone.
Their FAKE news story is: Whoa, Yea, "We're finding better, safer ways to park your automobile."
 |
Will this hooped bonnet be too tall for me to park my wagon in the CharBar covered, well-lit guarded lot in Westport? And does it make my white ass look like a big ole target?? |
I got the flier last night at the awesome movie theatre, The Tivoli.
Starting June 16, parking in the covered lot by the CharBar, which serves the Tivoli and a health club, on Friday and Saturday nights, parking is $5--in advance!
(No more broken toll gates from drunks bursting out of the lot late at night like the James Gang or Johnny Lazio at the Union Station Massacre.) At $100 per broken gate, the cost for GateGate was prohibitive.)
And the good news for me is, with a stamp at the Tivoli boxoffice when I purchase my movie ticket, the parking attendant will then REFUND my PREPAID $5
IF AND WHEN
I safely EXIT the covered AND NOW PATROLLED parking lot.
That is generous, and I appreciate it. Jerry Herrington at the Tivoli runs by far the best art house movie theatre in the metro. Tho I am also partial to Brian Mossman at Glenwood Arts and the Rio, home to my favorite film festival KIFF, Nov 3-9.
As to the FAKE NEWS flier announcing the parking fees:
Put out by what is now called the Westport REGIONAL Business League, aka westportkcmo.com.

Happy birthday, billion dollar baby shell company!!! One month ago, Stinson attorney David Frantze, mega-donor to Sly and Justus, organized the shell co. that will build the new no-bid contract KCI
 |
| What do you give an illegitimate child --already worth a billion dollars-- for its one month birthday? This week, the KCMO Council will give it the emergency contract-- the right to build a no-bid airport terminal! And control over any other kids that wanna play at KCI for the next 35 to 50 years!!! |
The city of Kansas City Missouri is proposing to sign a legally binding contract with Terminal Developer, LLC for a no-bid airport terminal project likely to be worth well over a billion dollars. Mayor James, City Manager Schulte, and Council member Justus are particularly in a big rush to force this deal through, before the other Council members and the public understand what is really happening.
Who is Terminal Developer, LLC ? Do you know? This basic information hasn't been disclosed.
You can search and discover that the limited liability company Terminal Developer, LLC was organized in the state of Missouri on 4/27/2017 by David W. Frantze, Vice President of SMF Registered Services, Inc., which in turn appears to be an entity of KCMO law firm Stinson Leonard Street, 1201 Walnut, Suite 2900.
 |
| Dave Frantze, head of real estate law at Stinson. Father who "inseminated" the spawn of Satan baby LLC 'Terminal Developer LLC' one month ago! DOB 4/27/17 Delivered in a no-bid package to adoptive parents Sly James and Jolie Justus one month later. |
Thanks to the relentless thorough research of Chuck Palah--here are some details.
Mr. Frantze specializes in real estate law and described some of his previous representation of Burns and McDonnell as:
"Represents Burns & McDonnell, one of the nation's largest engineering and architectural firms, in obtaining entitlements and incentives (including tax abatement, TIF and job incentives under State programs) for a new 450,000 square foot campus project. "
Mr. Frantze, others at Stinson Leonard Street, (formerly known for decades as Stinson Mag and Fizzell) and Burns and McDonnell have previously donated to the Sylvester James campaign. And recall that State Sen. Jolie Justus accepted multiple lobbying gifts from Stinson Leonard Street. In fact,
Burns and McDonnell have been among the largest contributors to both Sylvester James and Jolie Justus. There are so many simultaneous intertwining conflicts of interest at-play in this terminal proposal, without the parties recusing themselves, that it resembles an incestuous orgy.
Note to self: best not search the web for orgy photos...just sayin'.
So how about this analogy instead?
 |
KCMO is being governed like an open-air illegal bookie operation. Is this a crime, or just a crying shame?
|
Do you know how many attorneys sit on the KCMO Council, including the Mayor? Of the 13 members, over half are attorneys. Our understanding is that Councilman Quinton Lucas actually teaches Contract Law at the University of Kansas School of Law. Have they all gone AWOL (absent without leave) when it comes to properly representing the best interests of KC residents?
According to the Memorandum Of Understanding, we know that Ray Kowalik would sign the document twice, first as President of Terminal Developer, LLC (the Developer) and second as President of Burns and McDonnell Engineering (the Contractor). But we still have no definitive understanding of who actually stands behind Terminal Developer, LLC. Why is the identity of this group a mystery?
TERMINAL DEVELOPER, LLC
| ||||||||||||||||||||
|
From <https://bsd.sos.mo.gov/
Please note in their articles of organization, item 7, stating "No Member, solely by reason of being a Member, will be liable, under a judgment, decree or order of a court, or in any manner, for a debt, obligation or liability of the Company, whether arising out of contract, tort, or otherwise, or for the acts or omissions of any other Member, agent, or employee of the Company."
So--what happens if Terminal Developer LLC begins demolition of existing terminals A and B as spelled out in the proposal and then an unforeseen event occurs (financial market crisis, terrorism, etc.) which precipitates their withdrawl from the project?
Can Sly and Jolie Justus return the spawn of Satan baby? To whom? Frantze? Missouri Dept. of Social Services?????
Before more truth is revealed about this crony airport terminal proposal, Mayor James and Council member Justus are trying to slam the door on the public, to prevent sunshine from falling on the facts of the matter.
Legislation History
| |||||||||

BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KANSAS CITY:
Section 1. That the City Manager is hereby authorized to execute a Memorandum of Understanding with Terminal Developer, LLC and Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company, Inc. in substantial form and substance to that attached hereto as Exhibit A.
Section 2. That the City Council hereby determines that due to the aging of the current terminal and appurtenant facilities at Kansas City International Airport and the importance of improving the functionality of KCI for the airlines, airline passengers and general public who use KCI and the City’s limited capability to finance the costs of design and construction of the needed terminal modernization on its own, it is in the best interests of the City to sole source the development agreement, and the lease and sublease with the developer related to the KCI terminal modernization project proposed in the attached Memorandum of Understanding.
Section 3. That this ordinance, because it relates to a contract relating to the design and construction of a public improvement, is hereby recognized as having an accelerated effective date pursuant to Section 503(a)(3)(D) of the Charter.

Trolley Army pisses off God's People! CHURCHES AND NON-PROFITS ARE BEST HOPE FOR DEFEATING TOY TRAIN EXTENSION! Priesthood joins high hurdles race; educating parishioners to qualify to defeat Streetcar Extension!
Hooray for Visitation Parish at 53rd and Main--Sunday they legally "educated and informed" their congregation that if the Toy Train/Streetcar is extended to 53rd St, their church will be ASSESSED hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Most folks know churches and non-profits pay no property taxes. But the streetcar issue is different. They will be charged, every year, a "SPECIAL ASSESSMENT". (See related story on Tonyskansascity.com, RH column--the video that another church, Redemptorist, made--their assessment just counting the first 10 years--would be $108,000!)
This election is despicable. Tuesday May 23 at 5pm is the last day to file forms, in person now, not by mail--just to be allowed to CAST a ballot! And that ballot will need to be notarized, because it's not gonna be sent from the KC Election Board--they're only involved in counting the results.
This oddball secretive election is like a Yale fraternity initiation, eg Skull and Crossbones.
The only other time the 16th Circuit Court ran such an election was five years ago--and that was for Streetcar district 1--the river to Union Station. The election is controlled by Missouri Statute 233. It was strictly cloak and dagger--a behind the scenes deal rigged in the Missouri Legislature, to allow special TDD's, Transportation Development Districts to be voted on by a ridiculously small narrow district. Why????
FOLLOW THE MONEY--AND THE POWER GRAB
Because Mayor Sly James and his cabal of sycophants including Steve Glorioso, and greedy merchants at certain streetcar intersections, hoping to raise their traffic counts and thus the value of their land, knew that a true city wide public vote would never pass.
CFRG, and my hero, "Watchdog" Phillip Klein, are working hard to defeat it. I hope they are allowed by in-house legal counsel Scott Brinkman (816/881-3652) to buy the mailing list of the measly 3600 plus citizens who made it through the first hurdle. But, again, this is not an election being run by the election Board. According to the very pleasant and perky Janelle Jennings-Drummond, the circuit court's Coordinator of Special Projects, "access to a mailing list has not been absolutely determined yet." (Scott Brinkman has failed to return my calls.)
So rigged is this state-mandated election procedure, if a voter forgot to sign their application for a ballot, or failed to include proof of being registered, the statute makes NO provision for Janelle to phone the voter and remedy the problem. You just will never be mailed a ballot on June 20th. Clearly, Sly James is hoping only YES voters are smart enough and greedy enough to clear the hurdles.
This sneaky Streetcar Extension ballot is voter suppression of the highest order. Shame on Mayor Sly James. This needs to be defeated!
The BEST way to defeat the Streetcar Expansion is for the churches and non-profits to fight it.
They are all along the narrow district a few blocks either side of Main Street, from the river to 53rd St, State Line to Campbell--to RISE UP! Under current law, until Trump relaxes lobbying rules, churches cannot lobby. They cannot say "Vote NO". But they are legally allowed to "educate and inform".
So, pray for the churches to do just that.
The Streetcar issue will
1. raise personal property taxes,
2. AND assess churches and non-profits
3. AND raise sales taxes for all businesses in the district...a high as 12%!
4. And the Clockwork Orange factor that relates directly to further enabling KCMO's huge crime problem--
a longer trolley line will enable marauding bands of armed hoodrats to travel-- quickly, unmonitored and for free--from their current lair, the Power and Light District, down to the Plaza and out past Visitation Parish to UMKC.
Meanwhile, if you're not absolutely positive your ballot request was done properly, it's up to YOU, before 5pm Tues. May 23 (no postmarks, must be received today), to track it down:

Coordinator for Special Projects

WANNA CRY? Chill for 3 weeks--EVERY PC computer is slow, due to international ransomware crisis.
There's no need to join the queue at MicroCenter in OP, or waste too much of your personal computer guru's time. And there's no need to cry.
The world is at war, a computer war. Between some very smart hackers working with a crime syndicate all over the world. They are hijacking major websites and demanding millions in ransom be paid in three days, or that government or bank or Great Britain's National Health System loses all their backups and access.
And get this, the required WannaCry ransom is to be paid only in Bitcoin.
Worse yet, some desperate sites have actually paid the ransom!
And worser still, (as my niece says), the men from WannaCry ransomware have learned a thing or two from Big Pharma, and they offer payment plans or scholarships if you can't raise the dough in three days to start your extortion payment plan.
Read SLATE story about WannaCry ransomware here
This issue is so "yuge" that instead of his usual Sat. am tweets, while his Jewish son-in-law, The Jared, and Trump's daughter/wife,Ivanka, were at temple, Trump actually phoned other countries' leaders, trying to settle this problem. Including not protecting known cybercriminals in their respective countries, but collaborating in tracking them down.
Now personally, I have nothing worth hiding on my PCs. And I don't have any Bitcoin. (And since it's virtual currency only, the plural is bitcoin, not bitcoins. Though I do believe some were actually awarded to a local data storage bank, NetStandard, the brick fortress on Merriam Lane--which won a manufacturing and storage contest worth 25 free Bitcoin, for completing complicated math problems in record time. But that's another post. I read it in the New York Times. So it must be true, at least to someone who used to be a Democrat.)
But back to pain. I am finding my PC quite slow. How about yours????
In the morning, my coffee is cold before the PC and in particular Gmail will open up. And searching is as slow as dial-up. (Dear millenials, you have no idea how tough life used to be with dial-up internet access. Stop your whining.)
What to do about your slow PC???
MY computer guru, Rick Peterson at Brand-Central Marketing, told me to just chill. Google and Microsoft have way bigger problems than not-so-little and not-truly-old me. They are saving the free world.
In the meantime, mostly to feel like I am doing "something", I have become obsessive about two tasks every day, sometimes twice a day. No, it's not brushing and flossing. I do that four times a day anyway.
I use CCleaner.
And I clear my browsing history.
I also pray for geezers who are still using unsupported Windows XP which lost support 3 years ago, before we were forced to convert to Windows 10. (read one of my earlier posts to find out how to do that now, for free, if the 'Windows 10 free upgrade link' still works. You must post as "disabled" as in "need glasses". Not much of a stretch, considering most people and their ethics.)
That's all I got. Oh yeah, and doing butt crunches while I search.
Buns of steel in Shawnee.

Yup. Patience is my middle name.
