| I loathe having to write this, but who are the contenders if JLG becomes Mayor. Will Lisa Gore run again or who do we have as a viable replacement who will actually respond to their constituents? |
|
Lisa responds to her constituents, but being on the west side of the park, it is hard to bridge the gap for representing the ward.
I would think Candace Nelson would run assuming she is unsuccessful in her At-large bid. |
| Maybe Brandon Todd could run again |
Please no. |
He ha a pretty lucrative job...I doubt he would give it up to go back to the Council. |
Haha I have already had this spiral. I don't want JLG for Mayor, but if she wins, maybe we can get a decent Councilperson for Ward 4? But I feel like every change is for the worse -- Brandon Todd was an empty suit but at least his staff was quite competent and JLG is an extremist who seems to be intent on building a personal brand rather than GAF about her constituents. I feel like whoever we get next will go on a killing spree at this rate. |
Sorry, it's the DCUM consensus that he was better than Janeese so let's go. |
| I'm hoping Erin Palmer runs. |
That's actually a good idea, I'm surprised to read that here. |
+1 - that would be great |
She's obviously running for something - she sends 10000000 random emails a day, "we cleaned up this random corner in Lamond Riggs," " we organized a used umbrella drive in Shepherd Park." JLG won't endorse her, so let's see who else runs. Maybe Paula Edwards. |
YES Erin jump in!! |
|
Erin would be great!
I know a lot of people who have become civically engaged because of her, after doing simple things like neighborhood clean ups. |
As a native Washingtonian who lives in Brightwood, I’ve never heard of her. |
Transplant in Shepherd Park and I’ve never heard of her. |
