Repeal of Unelected Tiebreaker

HB 3141 carried by Delegate John Reid of Henrico. Current law allows the existence of an unelected (appointed) tiebreaker to a local governing board. Henrico's Board of Supervisors has one. I am not making this up. Someone who is unelected can raise taxes, spend your money, and pass laws impinging on your liberty and freedoms.
Delegate Reid's bill requires that if a tiebreaker is desired,he/she must be directly elected county wide, an optioon under the current statue. If this bill is enacted and Henrico elects to continue with a tiebreaker position, I think this is an office for Libertarians!!
