Pro-Frumin is not an attack on Goulet. An attack on dark money is not an attack on Goulet. |
stating facts about dark money support =/= personal attacks how about, don't court dark money support and then your campaign won't be attacked for it not hard |

The Ward 3 election results are the gift that won’t stop giving.
First, we had Queen NIMBY of the Palisades declaring Eric the winner on the Palisades listserve based on the first tranche of results, which were already well out of date by the time she sent her message. Second, we had the results themselves. Well-loved community hero beats the shady dark money corporate guy. Third, Eric goes bananas on Twitter. I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings. |
| At some point the rest of the vote count will drop. I'm surprised we don't have the Trumpers in Foxhall Village out chanting "stop the count!" |
That’s a pretty shallow argument. However, the options are limited so then you’re a bunch of classless Finley supporters instead? The easiest thing to do is to stop being classless if you don’t want your behavior to tarnish your favored candidate. |
No, not at all. I don’t know all the details about the listservs, but the attacks claiming racism were way beyond the pale and deserve to be called out. |
Maybe Goulet should not have been classless in stating that the black people living in the ward are all on vouchers? Maybe goulet should not have been classless in seeking out of state, right wing undlisclosed financial support for his campaign? Maybe Goulet should not have been classless in actually saying something honorable about his political opponents. I mean even the kid in the room was able to do that. |
The three people of color in the race said it was racist. You are the only one who is saying it wasn't. Maybe now that the campaign is over, the Board of Trade will be willing to release the full video of what was said, in context. It was horrible. |
Pp here. Agree. Was just noting what was on the other listservs. |
| IOW, the claim that Frumin supporters were being classless is in fact, a baseless and classless accusation. |
| I cut everyone who loses an election some slack for a couple months. It can't be pleasant, and they're just as human as we are. |
Latest counts are up and Frumin has extended his lead. |
I am old enough to remember when Goulet was caught on audio lying about illegally receiving dark money poll results. |

It isn't a shallow argument. It is the truth. Goulet supporters are ascribing some nasty and ill-placed ire on Frumin (and his supporters) - there is nothing Frumin or his supporters have said or posted on listservs that are objectionable. Yet somehow and for some reason, you and Mr. Goulet on Twitter, are all wound up on this. Maybe look in the mirror. |
