Wow - Dyna has attacked Lisa McDonald in most all of her posts for the last few days - things as "relevant" as motorcycle parking in places outside her ward - and now she's accused of appealing to gentrifiers. Hmmm - Dyna's real vocal about her support for SSB; I think this means Lisa must be closing in fast on SSB! Go Lisa!! I finally figured out the Vickie Brock/Brian Herron connection. As I was driving down E31st street, I saw a Brock sign in Herron's yard at 3109 Clinton Ave S!! Actually, it does concern me that Vickie worked so closely with Brian - How much did she know & why didn't she do anything about what she might have known; if she didn't know anything, why not?? I mean, there was bribery, extortion and illegal drug use going on and Vicky took those calls as aid. Many in the ward suspected that Basim was more than a friend of Brian or developer in the ward. icky has never answered any of these questions that I'm sure a lot of people have for her. I'm also concerned about the number of people outside the ward on Vicky's campaign - makes it feel like outsiders (within the DFL)are determining the leadership for our ward, and thats insulting on a lot of levels. I can't vote for Vicky - time for a fresh start in the council office.
