I was asked my opinion on how the town is being run.  Could I name the Mayor?  Did I know the names of the council members?  If the May election were to be held now, how would I vote?  The woman asking the questions had potential match-ups.  Wait a minute, I told her.  Who exactly commissioned this survey?  She said she certainly did not have access to that information.

In checking with some other Addison residents, I discovered I am not the only one  who received the survey calls.  There is rumored to be a group going door-to...
