[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In addition to the points raised above, it would be a wasted vote.  Even with three candidates, he has no chance.  Many people who would have voted for him in a two person race as a protest vote likely will vote for Floreen, either because they like her enough or as the lesser of two evils (in their minds).[/quote]

Op here... 
I wouldn’t totally count Ficker out — Floreen and Elrich night we’ll split the vote and leave room for Ficker to pull through.

Floreen just wants to rubber stamp development without regards to schools and is going to raise taxes
Elrich will definitely raise taxes and is just scary extreme

So torn on what to do here. [/quote]

Elrich cannot raise taxes without the approval of all 9 Councilmembers. [/quote]

Moco never met a tax it didn't like.  Elrich and the councilmembers are probably on the same page, no checks and balances.  Need to get a dissenting vote in there somehow. [/quote]
