I am running to provide a choice to the voters in my councilmatic district. As a young Candidate, I am trying to educate my generation on the issues of the day, showing them that they can make a difference. The voters in my district are very upset with the huge real estate tax hike. My opponent was the person who introduced the increased tax bill in the City Council.
The present City Council only has three non-Democrats in the membership. I am trying to increase the needed diversity in that body. Because of the dangers in our Society today, we cannot short-change our public safety personnel (Police and Firemen). I am against the City Council Propagandizing on various National and International issues. That would be like a Congressman or United States Senator discussing dog-catching municipal ordinances.
As a Journalist, I would Constantly inform my Constituency of the issues facing our municipality. In the field of education, I would use district 26 as the example for the city to emulate, not to water down its performance.
