About now one of your cult will hit the reply button to demand how such further economic catastrophe can afflict the 3rd ward.
WM: I'm not a member of any cult but the Irish Catholic Church which still claims me, astonishingly enough, but I did hit the reply button.
This whole screed was uncalled for. Mr. Samuels won because Mr. Moore did not turn out the voters. Partly, it was a bitter day, partly it was a special election, both of which kept people home. That's not a new phenomenon. And the traditionally union labor Third Ward did not seem to be able to turn out the voters for Mr. Moore either.
Mr. Samuels won fair and square and should be congratulated for his victory without the karma load of sarcasm.
We can hope now that Mr. Samuels will be a good council member, though even if he doesn't turn out to be stellar, he'll still be head and shoulders above some who've held a chair on the council I'm sure.
Congratulations, Mr. Samuels, nice work.
