[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another L for the Crime Troll Brigade:

As of the December 10 Fair Elections reports:

Contributors: 
JLG: 644 
Gore: 79

DC contributors:
JLG: 555 
Gore: 78

Ward 4 contributors:
JLG: 284
Gore: 42[/quote]

I think it's weird that the pro-JLG contingent on this thread has repeatedly accused people unimpressed with her of being a member of an opponent's staff, and then turn around and post things like this.  Every accusation is a confession.

Besides, what this shows is that less than half of JLG's contributions even come from Ward 4 constituents.  Is that a flex, because it seems like the opposite.[/quote]

Gore's are only about half Ward 4 too though. The work that councilmembers do affects people outside their ward just as much, so I'm not sure it means anything. This is kind of a bummer. I hope Gore gains more momentum. [/quote]

I don't expect Gore to win, but I hope she gets close enough to wake JLG up.  She clearly needs to be pushed to respond to constituent concerns and she is definitely still projecting that she DGAF about crime (see: her "New Year's Resolution" email).

But I also expected Brandon Todd to win based on nothing but the name recognition that comes with incumbency, so maybe I'll be surprised.[/quote]

I'm not sure about this. People in my neighborhood are NOT happy with JLG.[/quote]

The only reason JLG got elected in the first place was because her name was not Brandon Todd. No one knew anything about her or cared. Now, the same thing is going to happen to her and she will be replaced by Lisa Gore.

People vote against things, not for things. [/quote]
