That is not a big surprise to anyone who has followed Wendell politics for the past few years. It is actually surprising that more unhappy citizens haven’t yet decided to run for the post or talked others into seeking it.
While disagreements and debates are part of the democratic process, the Wendell board might be setting records in making decisions that seem arbitrary or likely to benefit only a handful of people at the whole town’s expense. Many residents only shake their heads in disbelief when someone mentions the board’s latest meeting or decisions that were made by the commissioners.
Regardless of how Broadwell fares at the polls, the election hopefully will change things in Wendell. Because the current way doesn’t seem to be working too well.
