[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Charles Allen is a feel good politician who only wants to virtue signal and does nothing to help solve the crime in Ward 6. He is super into photo ops...loves a photo op at a small biz or a school (pre pandemic) but is very light on actually getting stuff accomplished. He supports decreasing funding for MPD, and a second chance act for violent criminals ( murder, rape) if they committed these crimes between 18 to 24 years of age. Apparently even at that age you don't know that murder or rape is bad, and deserve a second chance and a shortened prison sentence. These people should be locked up for good. People are being mugged at gun point constantly on Capitol Hill and he does absolutely nothing to initiate policy reform to prevent this. He is up for re-election and we need a better voice for Ward 6 who actually will help decrease violent crime. DC has worked to have the city revitalized and it has worked well, but if this crime wave continues people will start to flock to the burbs even more than they have with the pandemic.[/quote] Is there a viable candidate who is planning to run against him? It's incredibly difficult to unseat incumbent DC Council members, and with the primary a little more than a year away, someone will need to step up to start raising money soon. If not, we're stuck with him. And it has to be only one candidate. We can't have the opposition vote get split. That's how Nadeau won reelection and she shouldn't be anywhere near the city's government (hopefully someone steps up there, too). [/quote] Email Ward6@dcgop.com I know many people in D.C. have issues with the GOP, but many of those involved only want an independent and the DC GOP has common sense solutions for DC, that are not radical republican views. Charles Allen is to the left of Bernie Sanders when it comes to crime and taxes and we cannot continue to have someone like him represent the hill.[/quote]
