Bellingham Mayor Mark Asmundson submitted his resignation today, effective Nov 1. My my. He continues an old corrupt practice of Whatcom County - resigning a year before his last term is up - at election time - so his carefully hand-picked successor can be appointed, serve a year, and then run as the incumbent. Incumbents have a 90% better chance of being reelected than non-incumbents have of being elected.
The Port of Bellingham did this successfully for over 60 years. Until I upset their party in 1990 with the KAP scandal. Our county judges pulled this off with incredible timing and innocent faces just a year ago. Mark has one year left on his third term - and this is the exact time for this sweet dirty move. Who will be his successor? Ahh - that is the charade that has to play out next. Inside rumor has it that GK is the arranged for winner. He wants it. Who ever it is, Mark has arranged it and has his tat for tit agreed on. You can bet your bippy.
