Purging the Petty Politicians who Promote Phony Politics in Soap Lake

SOAP LAKE, WASHINGTON — Voters are having fewer choices in the general election this year.

Some Ballots which were mailed to registered voters didn't arrive. Some voters forgot to register, and who will choose candidates for several seats on the Soap Lake City Council?

Brent Blake — pulled out of the race early but was not penalized with any monetary claims, and there was no mayor’s race in the primary election.

It's down to Hovde who is a Nazi Realtor from Snohomish County who uses covert operations and false information to get to his political and financial ends, including seizing property by misusing the laws to shut peoples water off when they have a positive credit balance on their accounts and then condemning their property under Washington State Building Codes and then buying the property himself personally.

For that stunt alone that Hovde pulled at 117 North Fern he should be sent to jail for ten years.

In Pos. 1, Barney Berg is being challenged by John Hussey IV and John Glassco. Although Barney is and has been acting as the Deputy Mayor and Dog Catcher, he is getting too old and is sickly and dying. So is Mayor Hovde who was rumored to have a cancer on his body, as does Police Chief Dorris according to Michael Eugene Power, a five year resident who has been battling with the City Government for various and sundry reasons for the past two years.

In Pos. 2, Gina Bernett opted not to run for another term and then, according to her, was forced to sign a letter of resignation on the street as Hovde approached her with a prepared resignation document recently. Her post was being sought by David W. Bertrand, De Vaun “De” Black, Kat Sanderson and Maynard Hagen. But lately De Black, who is a good friend of Bill Loan, and who endorses him, was made Position 2 Council Member.

Bill Loan says he isn't voting for Wayne Hovde because "he has been telling the council members how to vote... They rarely discuss things because the Mayor has already told them what is going to be done. Hovde is a dictator in a way. I think they have these meetings outside the council meeting before the actual council meeting so that everything that is done publicly looks smooth, like a smooth doggie." Why else would they operate the way they do with intimidation tactics.

In November, voters will see contested races for four council positions and the mayor’s post, where Wayne Hovde is being challenged by Raymond Gravelle. Ray Gravelle works for Team Up Real Estate.

The Politics of Soap Lake

It is election time in Soap Lake, Washington.

In another episode of the more than 888 episodes of the Soap Opera at Soap Lake, we bring you the political views of Dave Ready and Brenda Ready, a couple in Soap Lake who at one time wished to sell me some land not worth half of what they were asking for it.

Dave Ready is a republican. He also owns three properties in Soap Lake. What I find interesting is Kat Sanderson is involved in Soap Lake Real Estate and wants to be on the city council. But her opponent, De Black has already assumed the position by being Mayor Hovde's lackey.

De Black is a friend of Bill Loan who believes that Dave Ready told him that Gabor S. Acs and the Infinite Freedom Foundations are conspiring to take his property which is across from the Soap Lake Post Office.

In an interview with Bill Loan, his political views were pretty clearcut and as he gave permission for Alex S. Gabor, Executive Director of the Infinite Freedom Foundations to take down Mayor Hovde's political signs which were an eyesore, because Hovde didn't get written or verbal permission to post his political signs on his fence.

Ray Gravelle is also involved in Real Estate in Soap Lake and is Mayor Hovde's political opponent for Mayor. We wonder what Gravelle's position is on Soap Lake Police Corruption and the local meth trade.
