[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually, I just looked https://electionresults.dcboe.org/election_results/2022-General-Election Frumoin received almost 76% of the vote. The Ward average going back is closer to 70-72%, so he actually outpolled historical norms. Next time, please post with facts.[/quote] Yep, he outpolled Mary by a few points. Also, the snowflakes on this forum are ridiculous. Yes, there are a few homeless people who have taken root in areas around the Tenley retail area. They generally don't bother anyone. One of them has been here for like 10 years. Walking around the Tenley neighborhoods, what do you see? People out in their yards, neighbors walking or biking around. It's quiet. It's clean. It's ... upper middle to lower upper class. Is it some cloistered, gated community with cul-de-sacs? No. And if you want that, then gtfo of the city and move to the burbs.[/quote] Mary eventually came to the correct realization that Ward 3 was on a dangerous crime trajectory and made a series of passionate and courageous statements (for a DC Democrat) on the subject. Frumin, a retirement aged career politician who ran for Congress, amazingly does not appear to have ANY thoughts on the crime crisis. He’s just “listening”, as usual. I think most folks have fairly low expectations of the Council who are collectively an unimpressive lot with almost no possibility for gainful employment outside elective office. There was some hope that Frumin could be a counterbalance given that he has no ambition for higher office. But, so far he’s been an absolute disappointment on our block which had three stolen cars and one of the looted CVS. [/quote]
