You do not live here, you do not have family here, you do not raise your children here, you do not earn a living here, you have no stake in the community other than your vacation property. Yet you have the temerity to think that you deserve the same right of franchise to vote as those who call the lakes region home?
Please explain how you came to this conclusion?...

Sorry, it's just not that simple. If you own what some might call a "vacation home" in a lakes area town you can simply declare it to be your primary residence and then you can vote in that town. And no matter what anybody tells you, there is no length of stay requirement nor does it matter how many nights you sleep in you "vacation" home. If you have more than one residence YOU decide which is your primary residence.
You will have to get a local drivers license. On the plus side your fishing license is cheaper.
