Matthea, I'm curious, I've read this post several times -- as well as
Robert's post on this topic, and I'm not sure what the point is. Robert
Lilligren is a good listener, a fair minded person, and hard worker who
wants to represent all the Residents in the 8th ward. Where in his post
did he talk about people being "not worthy of [his] support" as you state
here? Robert is good at returning phone calls, returning emails -- which
is something the incumbent does not do on a consistent basis.

What do you mean by "support" -- do you mean representation?

Again, what's the policy proposal for City government here? What is CM
Herron's position on these issues?
