Ward 1 CC Candidates

The below list isn't too surprising but I wanted to make sure I posted the candidates who filed for the race this year for CC in Ward 1. All candidates running for city office can be found here. I do have to say that my favorite candidate would have to be Joe Lombard running for Mayor for the 'Is Awesome' party. Thanks Joe for not taking life too seriously.

Reich Labor Endorsement Update

Early I posted about Kevin not seeking Labor Endorsements prior to the convention, and my disappointment with this. Some of the commenters were upset that I wasn't posting the truth since he does have labor endorsements now. I'd just like to point out that I actually say in the post that I had heard he had recently sought labor endorsements, and that is indeed the case.

I received a message from Reich after sending him an email with some questions. In the message Reich did say that after the convention he has picked up the endorsements of several labor unions including, AFSCME, SEIU, and the Building Trades. He was very vague in the message on whether he had sought any of these endorsements prior to the convention sighting logistical reasons, and time constraints.

So yes, it's true, Reich does have labor endorsements. I'm not looking to post anything false on here, I just want to make sure everybody is aware of what's going on, and the politics behind situations.

I'm Back

Sorry for the extended hiatus but I've been busy being a grown up at work. Thankfully not a whole lot has happened around the ward over the last several weeks but there are some things that I would like to update people on. I plan on doing separate posts for each of the updates since I think it's only fair to give each of them the attention they deserve. Thanks for coming back and checking for updates. I'll have more posts up very shortly.
