All this constant bickering in the paper about the County Legislature is disgusting and what's worse is people from other counties see and read this.

What I see is the same things that's been going on for many years; the legislators can't/don't work with each other. Have all the politicians turned into crybabies? We have adults that act like spoiled little brats and are doing it at our expense.

Two Democrats, one Republican and one Republican-turned-Democrat are ganging together for what? All they're doing is being disruptive during bad times. With only 9 of them and a few operations people they should meet in one room and broadcast the meeting, they don't have to stay home.

Using the COVID is just a sorry excuse for disruption. Wear your mask, get your shots, do what you have to and work together ‘For the People' or resign and stay home!

Maybe use the High School auditorium for meetings as ‘The People' can be present. As for the meetings online, they are crap-technology as I had to use four different company types and none of them worked with my systems with whomever I had to talk to without being in person. We had to have phone conversations with no video to get the job done.

Another case of disruption: I don't see how someone can change their party affiliation during their time in office to the opposite one? This is saying ‘screw you' to the voters as ‘I'm changing my ideals and interests to the opposite against what you voters voted me in for'.

You want to change parties, then you should resign your position and run again as the party you change to and see if you get re-elected. Maybe you won't! Changing parties to the opposite party during a term is unethical and wrong.
