BARB JOHNSON TO RESIGN - FINALLY! ! ! !

Erie County Clerk of Courts Barbara Johnson told county officials that she will retire effective October 31.
Now let's hope the democrates choose wisely in their selection of Johnson's successor.  This is a chance for the Erie County Democratic Party to redeem themselves after YEARS of supporting a botched and shambled office!  The Erie County Commissioners will select someone to fullfill a 30 day term.  During that 30 day term, the Erie County Democratic Party's Executive Committee (ECDPEC) will vote to determine who will fulfill the rest of Johnson's term.

We'll see if whoever the ECDPEC will earn their $53,000 per year salary any better than Johnson who was rarely (if ever) in the office.

This resignation (or retirement) should have happened YEARS ago (around 15 years ago) instead of today.  If she would have done that, then the office would not be in the complete state of chaos that it is today.  Well, we guess it's better late than never.....but it sure seems like never.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to Barbara Johnson for retiring and putting an end to this mess.  Perhaps know, we will be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
