[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, given this position, I need to know who I can vote for who will beat this guy (and that supports the already-approved, logical choice for a new HS and ES). [/quote]

Mary Cheh has made her decision and is supporting Tricia Duncan. That's how to defeat Goulet. [/quote]

And that should now be the end of it. Ballots are arriving now in people's mailboxes. Bergman, Brown, Cohen, Finley, and Frumin need to withdraw now and endorse Duncan. She is not perfect by any stretch and one could argue that any of those other five would make better CMs, but I'd much rather have her as CM than Goulet and I hope each of them would too.

Yes, this will absolutely marshall the support of Mary Cheh stans for Duncan. That should net her about 12 votes.[/quote]

Do you have a better method to consolidate the field or do you want Goulet to be elected?[/quote]

I’m just not sure why you would assume that this non-endorsement from someone whose constituents don’t particularly care for her will have a such a big impact on the race. While I don’t want to see Goulet elected, to suggest that it’s now down to him and Duncan now is silly. It’s especially silly to suggest that Matt Frumin, who has a big base of support and has been very successful in fundraising, should stand down. The others probably should have dropped out a while ago (although I have a soft spot for Henry Cohen).[/quote]

Why do you assume no one likes Cheh? She would have been re-elected in a landslide.

Frumin has a big lead in fundraising, but all but $4k out that lead comes from people who don’t live in the ward. I can’t say - and you can’t say - who is more likely to be elected out of the two of them, but we do know the chance of Goulet being elected is much higher if neither of them drops out.[/quote]

Cheh would have won on intertia, but let's be honest, no one really likes her as a councilmember. She has always hated campaigning and her constituent services have always been a joke. She never went to ANC meetings or was out in the community other than doing her own personal errands.[/quote]
