Do I Have To Vote for Six?
In Tuesday’s Salisbury City Council primary you are allowed to vote for up to six (6) candidates. During the past few weeks I’ve been asked by many voters if they have to vote for six people. NO!
In my opinion, voters should vote for three (3) candidates - the three they want to win in April. It’s very simple. Voting for three people that you don’t want elected to city council is a waste. Remember, city council elections have very low turnout. Primary elections have even lower turnout. To vote for people other than the three you want to be elected could possibly cause one of your candidates not to make it past the primary.
For the reasons stated here, I believe that you should cast your vote for Terry Cohen, Louise Smith and Tim Spies. Four years from now, you will thank me for that advice.

I have made my mind up and I am in complete agreement with you. Wasting 3 votes on someone you don’t want to serve would be, a conflict and may bring a total different outcome to the election. Vote for the 3 you like the best, and want to serve as your representitive.
I live in district #1 and I don’t even get the privilage of voting for a majority of the council, I can’t vote at all. I’d like to see that changed.
