She tanked constituent services, has a terrible voting record, and hasn't delivered meaningful improvements for her pie in the sky progressive ideals. Her leadership was a sharp decline from Jim Graham. I live in Ward 4 now and Janeese Lewis George is following in Nadeau's footsteps.

The scary part is how appealing almost any other candidate can be when you have terrible leadership in place. Nationally, there's been a backlash to incompetent progressive leadership and it's now veering very conservative. We need centrist leadership and I'm not seeing much of it on the DC Council these days.
