Success (one recount maybe coming)

We have been working for several years to change the direction of the City of Canton. You can fight city hall, it's just takes awhile. Well, tonight we got very good news. The three candidates that we supported for various reasons won. The main reason for changing the council was to try to eliminate the back room deals and cronyism. Anyway, here are the result.

Bob Rush - 694
Austin Flint - 386

Bill Bryan - 664
Bill Staab - 345

John Beresford - 520
Amy Turcotte - 512
(May be a recount)

Canton has 22,000 residents. Of course, some cannot vote. But, this kind of turnout proves that every vote counts and the state of our local democracy is pathetic.

So, barring any turnarounds, this performance seems appropriate.

Oh, how I love her.
Notice the spot light on her early on in the video. Chills. Baby. Chills

While I too LOVE Barbara - I think the more appropriate song may have been LANDSLIDE! Very impressive results. Congrats!
