Russ You have nothing to appologize for. You stood up, made a stand, and tried to make some changes. No one could ask anymore.
I am sure one of the main reasons they won, is because they have been entrenched for years now. Most voters seem to go for the familiar names, instead of educating themselves on the issues. It's sad but true. From what you've told me, at the very least, you and the other candidate, opened some eyes, and made a few more people aware of the problems. It's a small step, but a step in the right direction.

Despite our efforts, we were not successful. My apologies to all. I appreciate the efforts to squash the current regime they've got there.....you made an effort to stand up to corruption and dirty politics....apparently the residents (not all, I know that) enjoy their close minded candidates. It's over, as far as elections are concerned, but our fight continues, my friends.

chins up and heads high folks. Take the losses with dignity and pride. Stay a step above the rabble and show them some of that medieval grace and dignity we are all famous for.
It's always an uphill battle trying to talk people in this part of the country to consider doing anything even slightly differently than they have for the last 100 years. (I expect Thompson to repeal prohibition sometime around 2056)

Thanks all for your thoughts and words of encouragement. Our battle is far from over and we need to keep the pressure on the other government entities to help out, I believe they were waiting to see how the elections panned out, if we got in then no need to step in, if not then they will wait to see if we keep pressuring them or just fade away. As they used to say, " keep those cards and letters coming" keep pressuring the state agencies until we get some definite answers.

Definitely. Don't let them think we are just going to go away. At least not until something is resolved.

Perhaps we can try finding an attorney to do some pro bono work and file suit against the trustees, on behalf of the vendors, for harassment Apparently we aren't high profile enough for certain groups but I'm sure there's one that will see this as a worthy cause, I'll start on that this week.

Good idea. Someone hungry and looking to make a name for themselves might be willing to give it a go.

Comes to mind, what about the faire attorney handling all those bogus sillytations from August? Wasn't she doing that pro-bono?
