[quote=Anonymous]Great Alexandria Now Article on Alexandria's next mayor.

https://www.alxnow.com/2024/03/06/potomac-yard-arena-boils-down-to-four-issues-says-alexandria-mayoral-candidate-alyia-gaskins/

She's very impressive:

"Gaskins has a bachelor’s degree in medicine, health and society from Vanderbilt University, a master’s in urban planning from Georgetown University, and a master’s of public health from the University of Pittsburgh and a certificate in municipal planning from the University of Chicago." Just from her education she's way more qualified to be mayor than any past mayors and the other candidates.

Lovely quote about her family:

"Gaskins says that she gets four-to-five hours of sleep on a good day, and that her family is committed to seeing her conduct city business.

“What I do think I’ve been able to create in my life and will do as mayor is a harmony where I have found a way for all of the pieces to work together,” she said. “I recognize the demands that will be on my time, then it makes sense that will be on my family’s time. But this is something that we are fully committed to doing as our unit and making sure that as a unit we can serve and continue to deliver.”

I wasn't going to vote for her but she does seem like the best option.[/quote]
