But, if the conservatives go to the polls things CAN change!
Voter unrest fueled by this summer’s property and income tax increases, combined with significant Democratic defections, helped sweep Republican Greg Ballard into office.
Ballard’s campaign and image — an everyman political outsider with an impressive military pedigree — also played well in Decatur, Perry and Franklin townships, which form the southern third of the county. The preliminary figures show he won every precinct in Decatur and Franklin, and all but two or three in Perry, carrying most of the precincts in those three townships with 60 percent or more of the vote.
This is a big dent in the confidence of Democrats who are hoping for big victories in Congress in upcoming elections. Republicans are finally showing that they’re prepare to fight, and win, in upcoming elections. People are simply fed up with higher taxes and Indianapolis made their voices heard at the ballot box.

If conservatives show up on election day this won’t happen.
