[Mpls] RE: New 5th Ward election. . . Concern

[V.L. Freeman]

Greeting's List,

DP say's : "The chances of getting a minority candidate elected in the new 
3rd are slim to none..."

So, this means again Hawthorne area will be left outta the loop. My, oh my. 
How many times are we to be pimped and used, before someone will actually 
help a struggling ward. In fact, I only received one mailing, a post card. 
Is this the sign on how the area would be represented.

We have to depend upon Mr. or Mrs. White council person elected to the third 
ward to help us?  Or maybe they will just continue to let the community 
fail, and not thrive? I've noticed that a Building materials company is 
going in on Broadway, what in the h*ll is that. Most of the folks don't even 
own their own homes, let alone not even have the money in the first place to 
obtain the things required to fix it up. I won’t get started on the new 
police station “Cub Store on Broadway.”

What we need is a person to actually give a damn about this side of the 
river,  just like the other side of the river. In other words a “multitasked 
individual.”  Is this even possible? For the runners of ward three, what are 
you going to do about the struggles we face here in this hood? How will you 
balance the needs of both sides of the river? I’ve went to Diane’s site and 
posed some very well respected questions for her, and this was over a month 
ago, to date there was no response.  I thought I was a constituent too, or 
is it because you don’t care enough about this side of the river. You can 
email me off list, to respond, that is if you care enough to respond to this 
constituent.
