disappointing

How disappointing that Ginger got 54% of the vote. I was really hoping for a Somerville victory, or at least a run-off between him and Ginger. *sigh* Four more years of the same crap.

Could Ginger at least hire some competent help in the ward office, people who actually know something?

I'm surprised the 19thwardagenda.com site is not online....it's been taken down.

19thwardagenda was online a little while ago, just without any new topic and not accepting posts. Bummer!

Sean, are you out there?

I wonder what the deal is. Hope he doesn't give the site up. I still cannot believe Rugai got that much support. I didn't get that vibe. Shows you what I know.

I also hope that Sean doesn't give up the site.

I thought that Rugai would have gotten fewer votes, few enough either to lose or force a run-off.

This doesn't mean that we can't push for more accountability. My big concern right now is this mystery traffic plan.

I know that many people in the ward received no notification about this at all. As far as I'm concerned, something that could have a huge impact on many blocks absolutely needs as much public input as possible. Time to make some noise about this.
