It is apparent the Douglas County commissioners’ quest for more power and pushing the home rule ballot question went down big. I hope the commissioners are happy with themselves in spending our tax money foolishly for their personal agenda. I am proud in a Republican-dominated county voters didn’t fall in line with their leadership to pass this power grab item.

Since most home rule quests are usually citizen generated rather than from elected officials, should the commissioners pay back the cost of this election through deducting it from their salaries rather than sticking it to taxpayers? They wanted it so they should pay, not us.
