The Martin Chronicles has a large election countdown clock in the foyer of its palatial offices. Today marks 96 days-and counting. Time is beginning to race by.
The next significant signpost is Tuesday, August 12. Why? Because all of the candidates for mayor and city council in Villa Hills malfeasant Mayor Mike Martin's embattled burg will have filed their election paperwork. We certainly look for some big surprises.
We are absolutely certain that no matter how many new council members are elected on November 4, Villa Hills' lousy lot will not improve if Martin lies his way to re-election. The diminutive dictator has already clearly demonstrated that his oddly-oversized ego prevents him from effectively working with anyone. Two different sets of councilmembers over the past four years-and nothing but failure and turmoil.
We are already tracking down several of those aforementioned "big surprises" as the August 12 filing deadline quickly approaches.
