I would also like to tell Don Samuels campaign manager that I received
his literature and would like to say thanks, however, it is an error to ask
the constituents to vote to "re-elect" him. Since he has never ran in the
5th ward, CP Johnson-Lee is the incumbent running for re-election. CP Samuels
would
not be up for re-election in the 5th Ward. Perhaps it should have said, vote
for Don Samuels to be "re-elected to the city council." The literature is
misleading, but I think it was just an accident.

I have also seen the literature and what it says is re-elect Don Samuels to the
New 5th ward.
Since there is a full 1/3 of the ward that is not currently represented by NJL,
then perhaps neither of them should use the term 're-elect'.
Or perhaps focus and energy should be spent on the issues of what that
candidate will bring to the community and how they will serve the people.
Not who is the incumbent or who loves the people. (Natalie's new lit &
tee-shirt read "U can't lead the people if U don't love the people")
