[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think I've got my list, and plan to vote early tomorrow.

Mayor: Peterson (will absolutely not vote for Gaskins or Jackson)

Council (if I have to vote for 6 - I may vote for fewer):
Elnoubi
Aguirre
Chapman
Lewis
Greene
Scherer

Will absolutely NOT vote for: McPike, Harris, O'Connell, Bagley, or Huskey.

I am inclined to vote for Peterson but does he actually have a chance?

As much as I dislike Jackson, I would far prefer her over Gaskins, so I do not want to vote for Peterson and end up with Gaskins because I did not vote for Jackson.

What do you and any other PPs dislike about Harris, Bagley, and Huskey?

I was thinking of voting for Chapman, Bagley, Huskey, and possibly Harris — not because I like any of them particularly but because I dislike all of the others so immensely. It’s difficult to keep track of each candidate’s positions on every issue.

FWIW, I am pro ward system and anti-: Justin Wilson, arena/stadium, Duke Street in Motion, and Missing Middle/zoning changes.[/quote]

I think Peterson has a better chance than Jackson. Peterson is the [b]only[/b] candidate speaking out against the Council’s move to end single family zoning.

I suspect he’s amassed a large contingent of supporters on this single issue alone. That said, I don’t suspect his voters are the loudest. They’re the quiet ones who desire a shift away from the chaotic direction of the Wilson era and are determined to have an adult back in the room.
