Snohomish County Auditor "Sideshow" Bob Terwilliger is stepping down at the end of the year to become administrator of the county court system:
"Bob is a known and respected administrator," Wynne said. "He's someone I think the judges can have trust in, who understands the county budget system, is active on union and technology issues."Earlier this year, Terwilliger threw away $5 million of paperless touchscreen voting machines which he purchased in 2002 and which nobody in their right mind trusts (like I said, nobody in their right mind) in order to switch to mail-only voting, the current technology for which, by the way, is incapable of accounting for ballots.

That is scary! He understands that no one watches or cares about the county budget system so he can spend what he wants with no accountability.
He does as he is told by the union to be active with union issues.
He understands technolgy issues - no paper trail you define the results of an election!

I check in occassionally on your web site to see what's happeniing. I would do it more ofter but its so depressing to review the current goings-on.
If you could ever harness enough rage to force every registered Republican to vote in the elections, you could put an end to this foolishness. Good luck

Oh Jeeze!
He will be able to do more damage in his new position!
