[QUOTE="Sluggo, post: 308342, member: 667"] I won't vote for Dougy. I don't hate him but I think we could do better. I was a state employee when he was first elected, I no longer am, I was in IT. Besides the IT dept., it was unbelievable how many dept. leaders were replaced with his chronies who just turned everything on its ear and then left. Didn't make improvements, just changed everything. I do like how he has handled keeping business open but I don't understand this obsession he has with being the number 1 state in testing. I don't think that has helped us. I don't like all this talk of recovery with nothing said about prevention, like people just rollover one day and they are addicted. I don't like how they seem to want to take "North" out of our state name, see our state logo. His approach seems to be to outsource everything. For example, when I reserve a campsite at a ND state park, I get a confirmation email from a business in Orange, California. Many dept. heads are now working from home outside of ND. And hiring "state employees" that can live anywhere...so we are sending income out of state that will never be spent in ND. I don't think that is how state government should be. [/QUOTE]
