But are there enough business owners, and non-smokers out there willing to stand up for the businesses to say enough is enough?

Well, that's enough for me tonight. Our only hope is the rest of the gang of vigilantes arrives before the polls close. My finger is tired. LOL

I freeped the poll. It was 250 to remain in place and 213 to repeal it. Close.

I went back in and tried to vote again and it didn't change. It was srtill 214 but the other one was at 252. Something fishy.

Something fishy.

Of course there is something fishy.............the entire idea behind the article and poll is to prove that EVERYONE is happy with it.

It is a common practice.

BTW, beckysueb, I don't have you on my list - are you interested enough in the issue to be added?

anyone else just has to ping me or FReepmail me for on or off my list - 95% of the time it is tobacco related, but occassionally it does get into things such as certain private property issues or the attacks on fast food, that have emerged because of the tobacco issue.

On a regular basis!!!!!

Actually, I don't live on the Island itself, but use that as a geographic location for the hurricane threads. I live about 15 miles from Chincoteague on the mainland.

Haven't caught you on these types threads before - are you on Shelion's list? do you want on hers or ine?

Please click the source link above and Freep this poll to repeal the Madison, WI destructive, mean-spirited and just plain stupid Smoking Ban.

I was able to vote only twice. Not fair!

But after I waited couple minutes I was able to vote again.

49-51%!!! WOO-HOO!! WHERE THE HELL IS EVERYBODY?? Maybe it can be done before the poll closes, or before the Taliban gets their act together.

Voting more than once is a tactic of the supporters of these bans - we don't want to seem to be acting like they do, do we? (wink, wink)
