He needs to resign.

He needs to RESIGN over a campaign sign? I mean, I didn't vote for him, but that seems rather extreme.

No. He needs to resign because he apparently told a bold-faced lie to the electorate and was elected on that basis.

When will the “Middle Finger Five” ANC 3C commissioners resign, especially Sauleh Siddiqui, Janelle Pagats, amd Hayden Gise? Flicking off a locally owned business and Tweeting “F” your constituents should be disqualifying.

Feel free to go and start a thread about that. This isn’t it.

This phony Office of Campaign Finance opinion, delivered 3 weeks after the vote, means nothing. It is binding on no one. Goulet did nothing wrong, the Goulet haters need to get over it -

1. The voters didn't care - This was all discussed pre-election. The haters ginned up protests from a few of the PTOs - voters saw that for what is was, just a lot of noise.

2. Goulet never claimed the logos constituted an endorsement. It's similar to the DC-flag motif used by most DC campaigns. Nobody thinks those candidates have an official DC government endorsement either.

3. The opinion itself is sloppily written, so hedged and so equivocal it has no meaning and no authoritative weight. No dates are included as to allegedly "advising" Goulet not to use the logos, after the OCF indicated previously there was no misuse of government resources.

4. "On further review..." - that's rich, is this the NFL? At least they announce the review before the game is over!

5. DCPS response is so qualified it has no application to the 2022 election - Goulet never claimed DC "endorsement, sponsorship, legal or other affiliation".

6. Goulet's strength was the cluelessness of his opponent, not the use of these logos. The opponent boasted "I'm the only DCPS parent in this race". Voters heard that and thought, "Well I'm not a DCPS parent either", given that a majority of W3 families, at some point, use private schools. Include non-parents and empty nesters, few voters are DCPS parents - yet Goulet's opponent insisted on marginalizing them and driving them away.

OK, Eric. Please explain how - in light of what OCF has told us - your statement on November 7 to the Palisades Listserv (and previous statements to the same effect) is anything other than a total lie:

“I got the inclusion of the logos approved by the Office of Campaign Finance ahead-of-time”

The obsession with Goulet is becoming extremely unhealthy and giving off creepy vibes at this point. If I was him I would be worried for my personal safety.

Because his constituents want him to explain why he lied to them? That constitutes “creepy vibes” and a threat to his personal safety in your view?

The problem is the obsession. From the Ward 3 race to the BOE race to now. The election is over. The fact that you cannot move on is indeed creepy.

False. He illegally infringed on copyrighted logos of different schools and PTA's and ignored the calls to stop using them. He should have been sued and likely would have been had there been more time.

He won the race by defying directives of OCF and DCPS and then blatantly lying to his would-be constituents. The day we just condone such behavior is a sad day for democracy. What is “creepy” is your attempt to normalize such behavior.

One problem if the sticky fingers crowd resigns from the ANC, is that Bob Trumper will just find other lackeys.

So the Trump conspiracist is back and thinks that their archnemesis is a Republican supervillain who puppeteers a DC DSA steering committee member, an Eaton dad, and an environmentalist advocate? It's off topic AF, but also what sort of wet brain crap is this?
