This cache has been archived.

Chuck Walla: Greetings from Geocaching.com!

Since you have not responded to my reviewer log about your cache, the cache has been archived.

Some time ago, I posted a note to your cache page requesting a response from you to post what you were planning to do with the cache on the page and to send me a note. I have no record of a response, and no response tells me that you are not planning on replacing or repairing this cache. If I am wrong with that assumption, please let me know promptly. I can always unarchive the cache for you if needed.

Sincerely,

Chuck Walla

Geocache Description:

A short walk, and a little off the trail, but easy to get to...

This is my prize so far! It is called the ballot box cache because I've put a twist inside.
When you find this cache, you will be asked to vote for your favorite political party; democrat, republican or independent. Inside you will find small pictures of a donkey, an elephant, and an "I" for independent. Choose one and place in the small sealed ballot box. Here are a few rules and info:
1) Please only one vote per person at the cache. They more friends you bring, the more votes you can cast.
2) I will post the results after every 10 or more logs on this page. I will not know how people vote and I will in no way post how people vote. Thats why the ballot box will remained sealed until we have at least ten votes.

There is a prize of a $10 gift card to Sufficent Grounds for the first find!!!

Cache starts with: 2 CD's with some groovy music
small deck of cards
3 dice
brain teaser puzzle
(will add political stuff later)

This should be a fun cache, so sit and enjoy! Any questions or comments, drop me a line!

My GPS was jumping a little, so if you get any other readings besides the one listed, please let me know.

Park closes at 10pm

NEW TOTALS * NEW TOTALS * NEW TOTALS *

As of April 2008 the totals look like this...

DEMOCRATS - 65 votes 40.1%

REPUBLICANS - 58 votes 35.8%

INDEPENDENTS - 39 votes 24.1%

The Dems once again had a slightly higher vote count. The GOP still got a good number of votes and the Indies seem to be backing more of the major parties this time. There have been a few more votes cast since these were grabbed so I will update again in a few weeks. Again, if you don't like the results, don't complain, GO VOTE!!
