[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She will win if she runs again. She's more popular than anonymous keyboard warriors think. Almost all of her most ardent critics are the city's most mediocre white residents, the kind of low-information people who support Charles Allen and Brianne Nadeau.[/quote]

What? In 2022, she barely beat Robert White, who ran a terrible campaign and whose prospects were severely diminished by the mysterious decision of Trayon White to join the race. In 2026, DC will have RCV and so she won’t be able to get by through relying on vote splitting. And I can’t think of anything she has done in the past two years that would have made her more popular, but can think of many things she has done (or not done) that have further demonstrated her to be terrible at her job. Her forthcoming efforts to saddle taxpayers with the expense of building a playground for billionaires is not going to endear her to the DC voting public much either. Christina Henderson or Randy Clarke would easily defeat her.[/quote]

The Wizards, the Commanders/RFK, getting businesses back in DC, reducing crime. There are lots of things that would get her reelected. She is more popular than people think, and Council already said they can’t fund RCV. [/quote]

Your wish doesn’t make her popular.

I think most of the city would like to feel assured that if they call 911, an operator would pick up the phone.

Are you touting her record in reducing crime as some kind of sick joke? Look up where murders were when she took office and where they are now and get back to us.

Ditto with traffic deaths.

Businesses have fled DC and that is why commercial property values and commercial tax revenue are at historic lows.

She’s been extremely generous to developers and yet housing in DC is unaffordable as ever. Homelessness in DC is rife.

Next to no development has happened EOTR other than the Homeland Security facility and a publicly-funded practice facility that will soon be unused.

The notion that she kept the Wizards in DC is also a sick joke. Her incompetence all but drove them off. Louise Lucas - and her beef with Youngkin - is the only reason we didn’t lose them.

Yes, after 10 years, she finally got Congress to hand over the RFK relic to the city. And her plan for that land? Not to use if for anything that might actually be useful for the city population. But to waste years trying to sell the tax-paying public a handout to her billionaire buddies. Let’s see if that flies.

Honestly, if that’s the kind of performance that wins your support, then you probably don’t deserve to live in a better run city.[/quote]
