"The 14 elections Mr. Cheney skipped in Dallas County were the presidential and state primaries, primary runoffs and Highland Park city elections in 1996; two state costitutional amendment votes in 1997; a Highland Park school board vote, a Highland Park city election, a state primary and primary runoffs in 1998; a hotly contested Highland Park school bond election and a constitutional amendment vote in 1999; and this year's primary and primary runoffs."

From the Dallas Morning News:

Let's see, presidential and state primaries, primary runoffs in 1996; state primary and primary runoffs in 1998; a constitutional amendment vote in 1999 and this year's primary and primary runoffs.

Granted, the city and school board elections were local. But not even failing to vote in a runoff where the candidates become even more publicly highlighted is miserable. And, as a former congressman, Cheney should know the value of a constitutional amendment vote.

Let's put to rest that these were ONLY local elections.
