Glad to see GOP's muted voices on Council gone - watch as the veil on City Hall is finally lifted loud and clear. GOP may not have gained any seats but the voters filled those seats with some familiar, outspoken faces. Good move in direction of greater accountability and transparency.
ReplyDeleteJust saying. Devoto, who had to primary to get on the ticket, got the most votes of any candidate, save the mayor.
ReplyDeleteWe've also seen another demonstration that it's tough to run outside of party boundaries.
Yes you both are right. GOP and Steve Devoto did a great job.
ReplyDeleteSteve I hope you stand up for all and not just the democrats. And from what I can see the GOP is just going to get better.
John Killian got 16 percent of the votes cast for mayor - likely due to lack of a republican candidate, but remarkable I think.
ReplyDeleteVinnie Loffredo got more votes than Sheila Daniels. He should either be elected as BOE chair or vice chair.
ReplyDeleteWhat would impress me more than having my tally rounded up to four digits would be for Ed to spell my last name correctly.
ReplyDeleteIt's not like it isn't a matter of public record, for goodness sake.
Devoto did very well - better than he likely would have done running as 3rd party. Phil and Joe did GOP a favor by not forcing a primary - otherwise, GOP may have been stuck with them. Thanks guys!
ReplyDeleteGOP's muted voices? That's kind of insulting. The two GOP women had great ideas but we bashed repeatedly for sharing them by the minority chair who should have helped make sure all were heard fairly- both parties. I hope you are not referring to them.
