40th City Council Endorsement: The Voters and The Weatherman

With so many candidates in the race it makes it difficult to choose one.I am partial to some and thought about going the "Citizen Union" route but I have a better idea. I am proud to announce I have endorsed the voters of the 40th Council District and the Weatherman.

With a special election turnout will be low. This is disappointing with so much on the line in regards who wins this seat. The winner will be responsible for getting money from the City Council's huge budget(millions of pork) in this area. With 4 days to go not many people still do not know there is an election.

10 candidates fighting for 3000 votes is not how the future of the district should be decided. I hope with each candidates GOTV strategy as well as other venues to alert the voters yields higher turnout. We can not complain or blame the system if we do not participate in the system.

As for the Weatherman endorsement this was a tough one. I was leaning toward Mother Nature but its easier to blame the weatherman. As it stands its looks like at mid 30's day with no precipitation. This help with turnout. If we had anything like the last two days the winner may have had 74 votes total.

So lets make a statement to our elected officials across Brooklyn and the winner of this race that we do pay attention, we do care, and we will not only vote but hold you responsible for your actions.

Progressive Districts

Only in New York

The Rev. Al Sharpton, who ran for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2004, says he won't get into the race this time. "I am not going to run"

Wow, huge surprise....Edwards-Obama 2008 with or without Rev. Al's support.
