Candidates never get it, bring extra shirts to change very couple of hours, get a golf shirt, do whatever you have to do to not look like sweaty mess when handing out your lit….

Voters should know now that Feren is not a Yale student. He got his degree from Kaiser University by mail and the City of Sunrise paid for it.

Why do the last three pictures have a strange yellow tint? Can’t you take a picture, Buddy?
FROM BUDDY:
I did not take any of the pictures. They were submitted by a Browardbeat.com reader.

My wife and I voted at the Coral Springs Library yesterday. The system worked flawlessly and there was a very light turn out. What was not flawless was the gauntlet of electioneering that we had to run through to get to the polls. This wasn’t electioneering it was being accosted and it was both unpleasant and off putting. We literally had to tell these people to leave us alone! Really.

Righteous Bob has obviously never worked a poll in SoFla in August. When it’s 90 outside and feels like 110 it’s kinda hard not to sweat. Sure extra shirts help, but come on.

Highly doubt Feren was out in the sweltering heat this weekend in a shirt and tie greeting early voters.

To “please”:
That’s why the photograph is yellowed, it’s from when he ran six years ago.
FROM BUDDY:
Ha ha ha.

I know early voting is going no where — it is here to stay but I really think for a primary it is a big waste of money. Yes it worked as it should when I went yeaterday. My husband I were the only ones voting CR mall — 6;30 PM — and there were about 15 employess standing around. County wide less than 8000 people have voted . Primary voters are super voters — we will vote. It does not have to be early — I would just have gotten an absentee since I’m not going to be able to vote next week.What a waste of money!
