Election Deniers

David Hillberg is truly a hero, a risk taker! He has taken the time to recount, reexperience and research the ordeal candidates face while being a candidate in a state–wide election in California. I know, I was there with him. Make no mistake, this book is not an easy read. But for anyone who is considering candidacy, pay attention to the Hillberg Blue Print. The author skillfully weaves various life experiences into the uncanny parallel the candidate must put up with. Part of the revelation pertains to issues of self–service, greed and ignorance od already–elected person whom he names one–by–one. This is matched by the absurdity of meetings, the demands, financial, deadlines and emotional taxation, from the Secretary of State, "S.O.S." to the election offices at the county level, usually referred to as the Registrars of Voters as abbreviated as the ROV. There is an ROV in each of the 58 California counties. David clearly demonstrates a very superior IQ. He can instantly identify stupid. Though he is not short on vocabulary, he does not mince words. Even with euphemistic diction he stated in his campaign speaking time exactly what needed to be said. The consequences was that he did not get elected. The "good Republicans" want their people to vote for the favored candidate, as ignorant and self–serving as the person in known to be. The Party does not want a competent, informed, constituent–serving individual in office. The Party wants someone with name recognition and adequate finances, both which hearken back to the Party's needs. The Hillberg Blue Print makes this absolutely clear. Regardless of what the voters want (and need) the Party want's a good old boy, someone who is electable, and manageable. That is not what all or who David is. He is not manageable by any handler. The candidate pays an exorbitant candidate filling fee. For that fee there is nothing in writing of what that candidate is to receive. And that's exactly what is received: nothing, there is a "trickle" of benefit but it is of no real value. The candidate has the opportunity to have questions answered at the SOS level. But even when the call may be returned the next working day while each day is critical for the candidate. And the same question presented by various candidates to the same office by other candidates has proven to be answered differently. The disaster is even worse at the ROV level. The candidate is faced with uncertainly every day doled out by the unconcerned and uncaring "elections" officials, again a reality clarified in the book. Because of David's concern for the potential candidate, David has tried his best to organize the chaos so the candidate has been warned. Election Deniers makes a "reality" clarified in the book for any serious candidate facing the uncertainty at any level of an election. Robert C. Newman II PhD.
