[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Peterson seems pretty disconnected from Alexandria voters. And I don’t think I want retired real estate developer as Mayor!

“After conducting a $30,000 polling study on various issues that involve the city, I was surprised that the issue of crime was not higher on people’s agenda,” Peterson said.  “There was somewhat of a feeling as though, ‘Well, if my car wasn’t stolen or I wasn’t personally robbed, it’s not high on my agenda.’ Well, I can assure you that the fact overall crime was up 30% in 2023 and car thefts were up 58% will be a major mandate on my agenda.”

He also says, if elected, he’ll take on the job full-time and donate his salary to the Alexandria Police Foundation.

fyi Peterson was opposed to the arena monstrosity from the beginning.

I don't love everything about the guy, but I sure as hell am not voting for Gaskins or Jackson. It's Peterson or a write-in for me. [/quote]
