Tate County leadership will conduct a statistical analysis of voting age residents on Nov 4, 2025 to determine the impact of the drug LottaApathy.
It’s use is pervasive in Tate County. Some leaders even say the drug use is out of control, perhaps because it’s free and so easily available.
LottaApathy is a psychogenic drug that emits a vapor that can easily be inhaled by anyone. If you are sitting next to a person in church, a local restaurant, a doctors office, even in your own home you may accidentally get introduced to this highly addictive drug (works like secondary smoke around cigarettes). Once introduced to it you are highly susceptible to its affect on your brain.
The drug acts on the brain in such a way as to numb a person’s sense of responsibility and patriotism.
Long time addicts have absolutely no desire to protect their families from external threats or even threats at the local level.
It is easy to identify long term users of this drug. They are self-adsorbed, listless, and have absolutely no desire to participate in any activity at the community level that might impact their life for good or bad. They never show up to vote and stay as far away from public responsibility as possible.
Because the drug is free, and readily available it is difficult to stop its use. There is no money trail and the only way to identify users is to see if they show up on election day.
On November 4, 2025, county leaders will perform a statistical analysis to determine the extent of users in Tate County.
How bad is it? In our most recent special election for Senate District 1 , out of a potential voter pool of approximately 1700 voters, 291 showed up to vote. That translates to an addiction rate of 82% of voters.
Currently there are no protocols for treatment of this addiction.
One experimental antidote for defeating the pandemic is prayer. Ministers across the county should encourage their flocks to stop inhaling this dangerous drug. Fortunately we have six Sundays left before election day.
Concerned citizens who are not addicted to this drug should ask their pastors to encourage people to get out and vote.
On Nov 4, 2025 there will be three special elections: Senate District 1 and 11 west of I-55 and Tate County School Board election for district 3 and 4, east of I-55.
Precincts involved in these elections west of I-55 are Sherrod, Arkabutla, Evansville, Strayhorn 2 and Flag Lake.
Precincts east of I-55 that are part of these special elections are Coldwater 3, Palestine, Poagville 4, Poagville 5, Senatobia 4, Looxahoma, Thyatira, Tyro and Wyatte.
Everyone should be focused on getting out the vote.
Lotta Apathy has destroyed communities, states and nations. If you are a drug free patriot you need to take one or more of these addicts by the hand and help them to the polls. If you don’t, we run the risk of getting the leadership the county doesn’t need.
Bad leadership is not a good thing but it is the tragic result for counties when the majority of voters are addicted to LottaApathy.
See you at the polls on November 4, 2025.
