I have been fighting a wall of any type along Thieme Drive for about three years now, and John has always been accessible to discuss the issue and very supportive of my position.<BR/><BR/>I may disagree with him on issues at times, but I find him to be a city councilman who is easily approachable, willing to listen, and thorough in his research of issues.Charlotte A.

She missed the two candidate forums that I attended, including the YLNI. Didier came to both of these. I have not seen or heard much at all from or about her. I'm sure she is campaigning, but my not having seen any evidence of it would be the chief reason to vote against her - if I lived in that district.<BR/><BR/>I agree with your endorsement of Shoaff and Ross. Harrison Square is one of the major voting issues for me this year. I was against the smoking ban, but I am more upset about the way H.S. was handled. That's why I like Shoaff.<BR/><BR/>I've seen Ross campaigning hard, probably second only to Goldner in this respect. She has not been as specific on some issues as I would like to see, but she appears to be well informed, and willing to engage people in discussions.<BR/><BR/>There is no way I will vote for Crawford. Mostly, because of his vote on the two issues mentioned above. The problem is, I still haven't decided for sure who my third pick would be. I have it narrowed to four though; Bender, Brown, Horner or Larsen.<BR/><BR/>I know, you think a L vote is a throw away vote, and that may be, but I often vote my conscience rather than for a winner.<BR/><BR/><BR/>I noticed that your ranking of the issues put the smoking ban above H.S., while mine is the opposite. Irrespective of what side people took on either of these issues, which one do you think most voters will give greater consideration to this year?Phil Marxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04372454786699413982noreply@blogger.com
