I was at Hosmer Library today, a voting station for part of
Central neighborhood. The turnout was impressive. Many more
young black voters, many middle-aged black voters and a healthy
sprinkling of caucasians as well. It was extremely heartening.
Of course, we're in the center of Neva Walker territory here and
Neva's the daughter of a much respected community elder, so it
stands to reason that people are turning out to vote for Neva.
