Then are you really "sure" what the net.public wants or doesn't
want?  ;-) 

I, too, am inclined to being fairly strict about list charters,
etc., but I'm not aware of an alternative to this one for discussions, 
campaign statements, and related communications about the upcoming 
LOCAL AND STATE elections, is there??  

If not, then I don't think my life would be ruined if there were some 
(or, heaven forbid, A LOT of) political discussion or campaigning 
on this list for one month, even though it is not set up specifically
for politics.

Such discussion among the citizens of the "net.public" could potentially 
be pretty interesting and informative, IMESHO.
