| I won't be voting for Jackson because she used our preschool class list for political spamming when she first ran a couple of years ago, which I thought was really inappropriate. |
It's a butcher shop. When it's the Muslims though, you need a scarier term like "slaughterhouse." Alexandria often claims to be progressive and inclusive, but there's still an alarming amount of xenophobia, and I say that as a liberal Muslim city resident. Funny how often the animal rights activists target grocery stores that sell factory farmed meat. Or meat vendors at our local farmer's market. Oh wait... nevermind. I means seriously, there is zero reason to object to this. How's that??? We are all providing a sewerage subsidy to the Slaughterhouse, as a result of the City’s revisions to the Fat/Oil/Grease ordinance that governs certain uses of the sewerage assets. |
I hope so! So what's the feeling? Annetta Catchings or Allison Silberberg? |
Catchings, while she may be a nice person, has only lived in Alexandria for 6 months. It's a lost cause. |
|
+1000 And she hasn't even lived in the city during a normal time, let alone one full year. It's not about party - it's insanity to vote for Catchings. |
It's ridiculous that she's the best the Republican Party could come up with and they couldn't even find someone who really lives here. It seems like she's being used as a pawn. There is no way she can win. |
My guess is she has other aspirations in the area, and this was a way for her to get her name out there, without having to worry about any responsibility or chance of winning. |
I guess I'm insane. |

Late to the game here but after a lot of research I'm voting for:
Patrick Moran Amy Jackson William C. "Bill" Rossello Mark Shiffer |
Moran, the son of former Rep. Moran, was arrested for violently slamming his girlfriend's head into a trash can and beating her up, on film, outside a bar in DC. He plead guilty. Voting for Patrick Moran is like voting for Chris Brown. I cannot believe he is even considering running. He is a woman beater. It's fact. |
THIS! Holy $hit how can ANYONE vote for him? https://washingtoncitypaper.com/article/456144/rep-jim-morans-son-guilty-of-beating-up-his-girlfriend-in-columbia-heights/ |
Ehhh. MLK used to slap his women around and he's lauded as an icon. |
Are you f-ing serious? Moran broke her nose and fractured her skull. WTF is wrong with you? |
My point is you can't respect MLK but denounce Moran. |
