[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t know much about Janeese (besides the throwaways you read on here) until I heard her speak a month or so ago. She impressed a lot. I had my concerns about her stance on criminal justice, but she’s worked as a prosecutor and so has a perspective that few of us have. She seems very focused on running a competent city government, which would be a welcome change from what we have now.[/quote]

The anti-Janeese trolls are very vocal here, but not so much from people who have met her. If you are actually open minded, I suggest meeting her. She's such an upgrade from the usual green team cronyism like what you get from Bowser. McDuffie seems like the next round of Bowser, so no thanks.[/quote]

Just because people don't like your candidate doesn't make them trolls. I've been a constituent of hers for a long time. She is pretty unpopular among her constituents (she wins because she never has a credible challenger). She's extremely dogmatic, condescending, unwilling to cross any special interest groups on the left. [b]If you want education policy in Washington DC decided by the teachers union[/b], she's your candidate. I can't even imagine her as mayor. She's be just terrible. [/quote]

No one can win a mayoral election in DC without the support of the teacher’s union. Fenty being the best example of that, but also see the 2022 election when Bowser and R White were falling over themselves to promise never-ending remote learning in order to win the WTU endorsement. [/quote]
