[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's adorable that there are people who actually believe Krucoff lost because he opposed bike lanes and not because he was a Republican running for election in Washington, DC.

You all need serious help.[/quote]

That isn't the argument.

The argument is that he underperformed on his home turf as compared to the rest of the ward. It stands to reason that if people were voting on party lines, then the vote would be relatively consistent across the ward. However, Krucoff underperformed in his own neighborhood. Sure that may mean there are more progressives and liberals in the Connecticut Avenue precincts, but then it would stand to reason that being a democrat and supporting better health and better environmental outcomes would mean also supporting bike lanes, which, yes, were a core issue in the 2022 election cycle.[/quote]

Very few residents, including apparently DDOT, understood that this was a bike lane project in 2022.  [/quote]

But it was called the Reversible Lanes Study.  How could people not know? [/quote]
