Any other city and that place would have been renovated and in use long ago. I doubt you could even save it at this point.

Which is another reason I don't understand why they're building that office park over at 7th and Linden.....its going to make downtown into even more of a ghost town....this is not "moving forward" in my opinion. Although I do know why they're building it....more money for the crony construction companies....its all about greasing each others palms, not the good of the city.

I'm honored to be a candidate in this mock election, at least someone thought of me initially.

I wonder if we should have a final election between ScranBarre, Weluvpa and the 3 candidates.

That's the whole Doherty administration in a nutshell. It's never about thinking of the residents or truly moving the city forward. It's all about a pay-to- play mentality among all of Doherty's cronies and how they can move themselves forward.

Weluvpa would win without a doubt. I've made far too many enemies on this forum over the years!
