[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm Ok with someone replacing Eleanor. I thank her for her service.[/quote] See above about vote-splitting. I think Eleanor has done great great things over the years and in the future I wouldn't mind a younger more activist replacement. But we -- as DC citizens needing representation in Congress -- can't afford to lose this seat to someone who will destroy the effort from the inside by splitting the vote. [/quote] We get so much $ from the Feds[/quote] False. We get cheated by the feds DC gets far far FAR less money from the Feds than any other state. Don’t believe the thinktank estimates which include federal salaries. Our schools are vastly underfunded because we pay $20 billion plus in fed taxes and get back only around $5 billion. Huge deficit. If DC was a state our schools would be way better because we’d get our fair share from the feds.[/quote]
