Opinion

So the West Wendover City is having the Mayor position, and  two City Council Seats up for grab on elections day, this November 2016. But you have to register now before it is too late. And they are not tuting about it, only a small flyer in the mist of everybody and everything else, a mish mash of sales of cars, babysitting, tools, etc… is posted on the Smith board. Oh they do put out free advertising, taking business from real businesses like us, for example, and put it in the mail of every single bill they sent out just this past week.   They also advertise free events that we also put free in our newspaper for such things as fund raisers and Easter Egg Hunt and Senior dinners, but we sure didn’t see that little flyer about the coming local elections and the emergency to register now between March 7th and March 18th or else you are out of luck… But that is what they want, for you to be too late to register. So West Wendover residents who want to be part of the city council or want to run for Mayor, please take note.

And since we would like everybody to know, here is what that little flyer Says:
