ISSUE 14 REAFFIRMS THE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT TO VOTE IN CUYAHOGA COUNTY

FROM MAPLE HEIGHTS NEWS: A LOOK AT WHERE THE MONEY IS COMING FROM RE: ISSUE 99

Monday, October 27, 2014

ISSUE 99: IF YOU HATE UNMANNED RED LIGHT AND SPEED CAMERAS IN MAPLE HTS, VOTE "YES" FOR ISSUE 99

If you're confused by these postcards you've been getting, let's make it simple.  Issue 99 has to do with a charter amendment involving traffic cameras.


Do you absolutely hate these unmanned speed cameras in Maple Hts?  Did you or a friend or loved one get a speed camera ticket and you're mad as hell?  


Do you think that there will be more of these unmanned speed cameras or red light cameras coming to Maple Heights and you hate that idea?


Well, we guess you have only one choice.   Vote "YES" on Issue 99 (which again has to do with a charter amendment).

AFRICAN AMERICANS FLEX THEIR GROWING ELECTORAL MUSCLE

Released: December 26, 2012

The Growing Electoral Clout of Blacks Is Driven by Turnout, Not Demographics


Overview

Blacks voted at a higher rate this year than other minority groups and for the first time in history may also have voted at a higher rate than whites, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of census data, election day exit poll data and vote totals from selected cities and counties.
 
 
Unlike other minority groups whose increasing electoral muscle has been driven mainly by population growth, blacks’ rising share of the vote in the past four presidential elections has been the result of rising turnout rates.
 
 
These participation milestones are notable not just in light of the long history of black disenfranchisement, but also in light of recently-enacted state voter identification laws that some critics contended would suppress turnout disproportionately among blacks and other minority groups.
