Comments about ‘Poll: Mike Winder, Mark Crockett in tight race as GOP primary nears’

Poll certain explains why Winder saw it necessary to go negative this week. Interesting that many respondents brought up Burwash. Seems this issue will not die! Does Mark really fare better against McDreamy? That would be a fun race to watch. Crockett/McDreamy all the way!

Mike if you really think you can win in November, I'd check the expiration date on the milk your drinking, it's gone bad. Burwash is going to haunt you for a long time.

According to the poll apparently many of the voters still do not know the truth about West Valley's budget problems and Winder's part in adding to them. His effect has been somewhat different than what he has expounded in the campaign.

Mel Nimer is someone I trust that has the knowledge, experience and ideas to tackle the Salt Lake County size of government, taxes, and budget.

"Winder holds a 48 percent to 42 percent lead over Crockett."

It saddens me how many of my fellow Republicans refuse to do their homework on the candidates in every race. Too many people vote only on whose signs they've seen the most. Winder has clearly won the sign war.

I honestly don't know any informed Republicans who support Winder. He is dishonest, has a very liberal record, and is just a flat-out not nice guy. Crockett is the opposite of all those things.

I trust Crockett. I do not trust Winder.

Enough said.

Trust--Integrity--Principles

Three things that should be priorities in this election.
