[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frumin has been weak on this issue, but he's capable of movement.  At the beginning of his term, he ranked pickleball as a higher priority than public safety, and now he is talking a lot about public safety.  He ran in the primary against a bunch of socialists and the GGW crowd, so he got cozy with them to win votes.  Hopefully he has learned that lesson. If you share your views, he will listen and if enough people raise concerns, he will respond.  I was shocked when he waffled about the crime legislation this summer, and I told him so. Next time, I expect him to be taking the lead.[/quote]

Cheh was far more savvy, experienced and lives in close proximity to Connecticut & Brandywine and we can see how frank talk and attempting to slow this down worked out for her. She announced she was not running almost immediately after she was vilified for her comments about crime outside the Days Inn where 5 women had been shot, she also mentioned juvenile initiatives that concerned her and issues with how voucher program was being run.

Frumin is a lightweight, he is never going to be taking the lead on anything of substance imo. Very disappointing. I hope to be proven wrong and for you to be correct, PP. Pinto's Emergency Crime Bill sure has not had much of an impact, eh? His behavior at that hearing was shocking, even Allen, Nadeau, Mendo, Robert White, fell in line, voted "yes" without speechifying, then there was Matt. I doubt he will be around for more than 1 term. He wants to ride his bike, go to events and be a gadfly.

The enormous issues created by factions w/in USAO's office leading to no paper rate climbing to 67% since 2017 is a huge factor in all of this and is not easily solved or something DC has any control over. [/quote]
