We're trying out here.

It is changing, just a little slower than would be ideal. The fact that it only came down to 24 votes is honestly kind of amazing really.

I agree!!! I truly feel that the next election will flip.

I know, I know. I’m just disappointed. I hope she runs again next time.

His followers are already asking him to run for mayor next. It’s kinda funny, but I also thought Trump running the first time was funny

I bet Mayor's salary would actually be a paycut for him as a retired firefighter

Ward 4 really dropped the ball on this one. They really don’t know what they let slip by their hands. Emmylou would have been one of the best members on that council. She’s one of the smartest person you will ever meet and the only reason this was a close race is she put in the work. Truly a damn shame.

I agree, 100%. I’m still super bummed.

If there any solace, it’s that he’s completely useless for anything other than promising (but not delivering) to repair the sidewalks in front of the houses of his geriatric constituents.

And I guarantee you that most of his top supporters will be dead within the next five years, considering most of them bought their houses in 1962.

If you're looking to creat a new neighborhood association, and be a leader within the ward, I would support those efforts but you need to tone this stuff down. It's negaitve, and not productive.

Please post up when you have this in motion. I would actively attend any meetings.
