Who do you like for mayor?

Everybody's talking about the mayoral race. I guess that makes sense. There's a lot of people to talk about. I get asked a lot whom I'm voting for in the mayoral election. Whom I would prefer to work with if I'm elected. I don't think it's fair, or wise for that matter, to answer the question. I don't mind making some observations though. A view from down here in the grass roots so to speak. First yardsigns I've seen appear in the 4th District: 1. Henry Klein 2. Alvin Brooks 3. Mark Funkhouser Most asked about mayoral candidate when I'm door knocking: 1. Mark Funkhouser 2. Henry Klein 3. Kathryn Shields Mayoral candidates that live less than 5 minutes from my house (from closest to farthest): 1. Mark Funkhouser 2. Albert Reiderer 3. Henry Klein 4. Stan Glazer 5. Kathryn Shields What does all this mean? Absolutely nothing. Just like all the polls you'll hear about over the next few weeks. All of these candidates except Councilman Brooks live in the 4th District so it makes sense that their neighbors would be the most interested in them. Now if the same things are being heard and observed elsewhere in the city, then you might have a story...
