Sara Nelson is up for election next year. She's repeatedly pissed off the constituents too. One of the biggest gaffs was when her friend, Tanya Woo, ran for city council and had a clear decisive loss. Not long after one of the the other council reps stepped down and Sara appointed Tanya to that seat. This last election Tanya had to run again To retain the seat and was, you guessed it, had a decisive loss.

Sara is going to lose the council seat next year, but the damage she's caused will take a while to fix.

Dry alkies are the worst. Almost.

Even worse are pro-cop centrist candidates.
