Hey guys, i was going to make a seperate thread, but I've been trying to get a read on the thoughts of the diverse Olney area's political opinion.
I've been out there to ask people questions about the upcoming election...

Could I ask any of Olney-ers (? haha) about your political opinion regarding your area?
Or what some of you think would be a popular opinion in the upcoming presidential election?

THANKS for anything!
I love the diversity along 5th...its so unique how much of a melting pot it is as you just travel along it. I was in the fisher park area most recently.

It seems like the vast majority of people posting in this thread left Olney 15-25 years ago. Almost no current residents have posted here, so it may be hard to get their opinions.

And I am fairly certain that the (majority of) people that do live in Olney nowadays couldn't give two shits about politics or anything else of that nature.

alright padulese and Olney bhoy, I went to Inky, graduated in 84, ran around with some of the Harts when I was around 10, remember (avoided) p-nut, lived at Second and Fisher, went to scouts at first olney presb, we probably knew the same people. What I really want to know is, do you remember the Sutton family? There were three boys and they lived a few houses from the harts, what happened to Jack Sutton? He had some developmental issue and was harrassed a lot in the neighborhood. anyone? How about the Matt Whalen? I ran around with him a lot too.

haha, what makes you say that??
Sounds a bit harsh...
I've met some that do and some that dont. I did some interviews trying to get a general feel of the vibe of the area on the presidential election, candidates, etc...

for such a diverse area, i figured that many would have interest in some issues.
