[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get that people are tired of Bowser and that Robert White seems to be an agreeable person but for the most part he has put out very few proposals or platforms which means either that he's not ready to govern or that he's going to be overtaken by special interests - or both.

In my neighborhood (upper northwest) he seems to attract the support of [b]far left liberals who talk a good talk but then don't want to stand behind their platforms - "We need more affordable housing...but also please preserve our nice low rise commercial strip and single family home lots and don't build denser!"[/b]  I honestly think that if R. White  wins these folks are going to have some serious buyers remorse.

Myself, I am particularly concerned about Robert White's statements in support of the WTU and giving more control over schools to the school board.  I find neither of these institutions to be looking out for the interests of students and families - they are both teachers' advocates.  So I think I'm going to have to hold my nose and vote for Bowser.[/quote]

As a far-left Ward 3 liberal who wants density and upzoning and all of the affordable housing things, I am confident that the people you’re describing are NOT supporting Robert White. I wish they were because I think then he’d win. But they are going to vote for the least possible change, and that’s Muriel Bowser and Eric Goulet.[/quote]
