[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm unclear what DFER even wanted in Ward 3 specifically. There are no charter schools here! I'm not sure why there aren't, but they just aren't here![/quote] They wanted a bought councilmember who would support their agenda.[/quote] Yep. It doesn't matter which ward they represent, all councilmembers have the same vote on the council. [/quote] They also supported Mendelson and Bowser. Do you consider them “bought” council members?[/quote] I do. But it's a little different, they were going to win anyway, the dark money just saved them the effort of fundraising (and media buying, that's a pain in the ass). On the other hand Goulet's candidacy wouldn't have existed at all without dark money. [/quote] Even billionaires don't drop that kind of money without wanting something in return. [/quote]
