Several list members have questioned whether a black candidate can win and become the councilmember for ward 3. I believe that the results of the 2001 ward 5 campaign between Cherryhomes and Johnson Lee show that message is more important than race in determining who wins the ward 3 contest. (A y

Thanks Tom- it's bad enough that we only have a couple candidates from the neglected Northside precincts in the 3rd. Now apparently we have carpetbaggers entering the race that don't even live in the ward! If these folks entered the race by geopolitical mistake they can gracefully withdraw and
