Politically Homeless

This blog is created as a forum for the increasingly large number of voters in Marion County, Florida who consider themselves to be "Politically Homeless". We are individuals who are frustrated with political parties and discouraged by "politics as usual". Many of us have no registered party affiliation. Others stay registered with a party only to vote in primaries, but no longer identify with the party's current political direction. We encourage you to post your comments.

Sound Off: Do You Have Issues? (Section #4)

[NOTE: This thread of the blog is full. You can continue to review the comments made to date. However, to add your comments or start discussion on a new topic or issue, please go to: "Sound Off: Do You Have Issues? (Section #5, April 1)".]

We are starting a fourth section of “Sound Off”. Our third section has accumulated many comments, and we want to make it easier for you to review and post comments. Please use this section to discuss issues you want to “Sound Off” about that are not yet covered on our Politically Homeless blog.

The “Sound Off” section is provided for anyone who wants to start a discussion and/or offer an opinion concerning an important topic or issue. Our question of the month and other postings may not satisfy your interests or concerns. You don’t need to wait for the Blog Master, or someone else, to bring up a discussion topic. You can start your own open discussion forum right here.

You can review the issues and comments that have been covered in the past, just go to “Sound Off: Do You Have Issues? (Section #3)” and click on the “Comments” thread.

Let us hear from you.
