I think I might try to start manufacturing those bumper stickers now. I would love to have one on the back of my vehicle as I pull into the Vanguard parking lot...
I was sorry to see that District 6 voters went with Dennis "GOB" Troyer instead of Jim Mautino. Jim was a councilman who represented his district with fervor that others could learn from. His heart & his passion was (& probably still is) District 6 & it showed in how tirelessly he worked for them. I hope that Mr. Troyer can learn from that & learn well, for we'll be watching. I know that DH & I are going to start making a concerted effort to attend the City Council meetings - we've watched them on TGOV & are looking forward to seeing them in person. Anyone want to start an over/under as to how many meetings Mayor Taylor (that doesn't flow) will attend?
I am happy to see that Maria Barnes won our district. She is another one who seems to have a heart for neighborhoods & should be a refreshing face on the council. Also, congratulations to the other newest member elected last night, Cason Carter.
I think this election showed just how much can be done when people put their mind to things, good or bad, right or left. I guess the left was just more united than the right.
Also, Mayor Taylor, don't forget that almost half of the city didn't vote for you - it'll be interesting to see how she handles that part of the voters. Heck, she probably won't even notice. Guess this means I should now start calling the Mayor's Action Line & ask for Tulsa Transit to start operating a bus out to Cherokee again...just a thought.
