Turnaround team needed for turnaround team selection team

Ron Sims and his team still haven't managed to hire the turnaround team to clean up the elections office:

King County's second try at hiring a "turnaround team" to rebuild its elections office turned into a confused jumble Wednesday.
The turnaround team was supposed to have been on board before the September Primary. In the absence of the turnaround team, 390 absentee ballots from the Primary remain unaccounted for and critical data files from the General election are being unlawfully withheld from the public.

2. Paul Berendt should fit right in there. He is one of the so called non biased individuals I would expect Ron Sims to appoint for mega bucks to do nothing. I notice none of the democrats on the King County Counsel that we reduced ended up in a resulting savings to the taxpayers, they all got cushy jobs in the Ron Sims and KCE departments.

4. Now Stefan, You know that it takes time to manipulate the data files......... they can't release them until they figure out how to make them match the vote counts.

5. Free advice: RE-VOLT!!

More free advice: Find Mary Lane and put her in charge of the turnaround team. She'll TACAMO (TAke ChArge And MoveOut)!!

Yet more free advice: Find a way to elect the King County Auditor.

6. Sadly, we all kind of knew things would move about this slowly and unsuccessfully down at KCE.

7. The turnaround team to clean up KC elections needs a turnaround team...excuse me, I'm still laughing. This would be truely funny if it wasn't still wasting tax dollars, while Sims et al have no intention of loosing control of the elections dept. Why clean it up when it is operating exactly how they want? Why conform to election laws when nobody is requiring compliance? Why change what is working for your and your cause?

Good one Stefan!

8. According to PDC contributions records you have one big time Deomcratic Donor and King County Executive staffer Paul Tanaka "Working out the details of the Turnaround Team contract" with Waldron and Associates President Debbie Bevier another $2,000+ Democratic Donor. Yea, I am SURE things are going to change with this group getting a 1.35 Million Dollar contracts to fix KCE.

9. Turnaround Team? Sounds more like a Tailchasing Team. Alls they gotta do is fire Dean. Idjits.

10. Like every other LEFTIST PINHEAD "turnaround" scheme in Washington, KingCo and Seattle.....the turnaround team will keep turning around and turning around and turning around (ie SPINNING IN CIRCLES!) until all the money is gone and absolutely nothing of value has been accomplished!

11. This turnaround team is in the heart of the spin zone. It needs to be transformed into the no-spin zone, not the no-spine zone, as has been done previously. Time to speak out on the injustices. They (the LEFTIST PINHEADS) in power will never do anything unless forced to comply.

12. What are the odds on Ron appointing Paul to run the turn-around team?

13. Meanwhile, back at the ranch....

Dean Logan said, "If you want to turn me around, you have to catch me first".

14. The turnaround team is already in place. Turn around and don't watch them while they count the ballots.
