Hi All,

Not sure if this is the right area of the site, but it is political.

On Thursday, January 17, 2008, I filed as a Candidate for Pinellas County Property Appraiser.

Use this link and click on my name for information.

Supervisor of Elections Site

My first goal is to qualify for the election by obtaining the required number of petition signatures. If you are a registered voter (party affiliation does not matter) in Pinellas County, Florida, and would like to see me qualify, please contact me by phone or email. Use my contact information on the site at the link below.

Thanks!, in advance.

I wish I was in Pinellas so I could sign up. Good Luck!

If I were on the right coast I'd vote for you. Best of luck, Frank.

Good luck, Frank. You're too far south for me.

Hey... how many people can you sleep on the floor at 6285 25th Avenue North? If we all register as residents... temporarily... you may be a shoe in! Laughing

Oh well... I'm from a small town. If you make the wrong person mad, you can lose 50% of the votes. Many of the family trees are telephone poles, no branches at all. Good luck to you though. I don't know anyone in the area, but would give you a referral ifin I did.

Good luck, Frank. (If you win, you'll probably need it.)

Well Frank, scratch my comments. I had a client call me from St A wanting to buy a second home in the mountains, so I am able to tell someone to vote for you. banana

I think you should stay on the board and straighten them out. As far as I know you are the only voice of reason on there. If you can do that and be the tax man, then good luck. If not, then withdraw your candidacy.
