If you think Nadeau’s approach on crime has worked, George is your candidate.

Janeese is earnest, but her extreme position on crime is dangerous and ignorant.
This is how I feel. I really don't like George's position on crime but I do like her endorsement by Racine.
I loathe Todd, though. He and his supporters brag about his constituent services but I found them extremely lacking. The one time I reached out I had a conversation with a staffer (Carnes) who said he'd look into my issue and call me back with a solution. He never did; after a week I called him back and left a message. Left 6 more unreturned messages. Then to put a cherry on top, Todd knocks on my door asking for my vote and when I tell him I had a bad experience with his office his response was "no you didn't, constituent services is my strength!" (I am absolutely not making this up, that's a quote.)
So I think I'll vote George and hope for the best, because she has the best chance of unseating him. Although if my mailbox is to be believed Todd has infinity dollars to spend on outreach so it might be tough.
Todd constituent here. We had a very similar experience. We asked him for help with something. He said he would help us, and then we would hear nothing. We would ask again, and he would say our request fell through the cracks or that the staffer responsible for our issue was sick, and that he would get on it. But then he never would. We would ask again and again and again. And there was always some excuse about how he meant to help us, but something came up but that he was on it and then...nothing.
I honestly find it very strange that any constituent of Todd's would vote for him. Literally anyone else would be an improvement.
+1
Todd is literally the worst representative I've ever had at any level of government. Seriously, it cannot possibly get any worse.
If he loses, it will get worse.
Trust me, as someone who has lived in Nadeau's ward for the entirety of her tenure: it can get worse.
I used to live in Ward 1 when Jim Graham was the CM. Nadeau is an improvement. Do you think paid family leave is a bad idea?
I think the massive spike in crime is a bad idea. But I guess paid family leave will solve that problem?
Well, parents being better able to take care of their newborns is pretty important. Part of the bigger picture, but yes, important.
Name one concrete thing she's done to address the rising crime in her ward.
You'd need to first understand that policing isn't the only avenue to address crime. Try reading up on the impact of lead in water on crime. Now expand that thought to everything else that impacts kids growing up (and adults). So, you probably don't care about work she's done on housing stability. Or oversight of Special Police Officers. I'm guessing you don't care about harassment of poor people of color. That's not the crime you're worried about. Other people get there connection, but not you. Not until you open your ears more.
DP. What a bunch of sanctimonious BS. Most of the long time African American residents of the community- the people who are most often victims of crime - are against efforts to block effective policing. It is mostly white newcomers, who are less likely to be victimized, who advocate for these “reforms.”
Policing certainly isn’t the only part of the solution to crime, but it is a part of it. That’s something Nadeau doesn’t seem to recognize and we don’t need more of that.

Oh, an attorney. Well, then she clearly is worthy of support.
You said you don't view her as "highly competent". Maybe you have some other kind of bias going on?
What kind of bias are you thinking?
Perhaps you know yourself best? Perhaps not.
Think about what would make you question the competence of a highly accomplished person like her.
At this point, I have to assume you work for her campaign.
The idea that the fact that she is an attorney means that I should inherently view her as competent to be councilwoman is ridiculous. There are plenty of incompetent lawyers, and plenty of competent lawyers might not be a good councilwoman.
Bad assumption. But I do volunteer my time and have voted for her. She's very smart and has a great message. She knows more on any issue than Todd ever will. We could use more competent people like that on the council.
