As related in today's Post Tribune - Rich James' Why is Growth a Four Letter Word it would appear that a vocal by small minority of Northwest Indiana leaders are against growth and improving our lackluster economy.
Buzzcut at Blue County in a Red State showcases Rep. Charlie Brown (yes, you read that right) and his suggestion that the bi-partisan support shown for his own party member Chet Dobis stinks and he thinks there's something afoot.
Here are your leaders and how they voted:
YES
Mara Candelaria Reardon, D-Munster
Tom Dermody, D-LaPorte
Chet Dobis, D-Merrillville
Linda Lawson, D-Hammond
Scott Pelath, D-Michigan City
Gregory Simms, D-Valparaiso
Ed Soliday, R-Valparaiso
Shelli VanDenburgh, D-Crown Point
NO
Charlie Brown, D-Gary
Donald Lehe, R-Brookston
Vernon Smith, D-Gary
Dan Stevenson, D-Highland
DID NOT VOTE
Earl Harris, D-East Chicago
It would appear that Charlie Brown, Donal Lehe, Vernon Smith and Dan Stevenson should be voted out of office this year. I would probably add Greg Simms too, since he is a Valpo resident trying to respresent the people of Portage who keep getting overlooked by their own party.

Don Lehe's votes haven't been in favor of NWI. It's too bad that his district is gerrymandered into Northwest Indiana from an hour's drive downstate on I-65.
