Another Pol quite new to the polls

You may remember two years ago, District 1 Councilor Joff Smith was given some shit for not having voted in a municipal election prior to his run? That was only half fair since the guy was away at college for most of the missed races. But what do you think District 5 (my turf) candidate Rich Balls excuse will be? It’s been on the street for about a week now, that Mr Ball has not voted in the last three municipal elections; his last vote in a local race according to the Worcester Election Commission was cast November of 1999. I haven’t seen a single mention of this in the local press, I can only assume a late breaking pumpkin carving contest or some such foolishness is temporarily distracting our local scribes. With the recent restructuring of the Election office, one can only hope there will be a poll worker on stand-by to walk Mr Ball through the process come election day.
