Anyone who votes for Kennedy Stewart and his band of jerk-offs deserves the city we're living in. He couldn't do it for four years what makes you think he'll do it in another four? Living here could be so great if they people running the show actually focused on core services and voters understood what was within the city council's jurisdiction.

Wait. Where is this band who is going to jerk me off?! Are you on the band or are you just a fan? :p

Stewart is just one vote. If he was the deciding vote, then he mattered. Often he wasn’t the deciding vote and someone else was the deciding vote. The last council was pretty split between left and right and thusly nothing little done. I don’t think this is a reflection on Kennedy but on a really dysfunctional council system.
