SOUZA: Breath of fresh air

When you think about it, Woody McEvers is the sole remaining reason for all the stressful negative feelings that our community has been going through for the past few years.

If he had been the “good old boy” we all thought he was and had represented the common fella like we all thought he would, none of this negative mess would ever have happened. We, the common people, would have had the final say about McEuen.

Woody does not deserve to be re-elected.

Negativity? Steve Widmyer’s four friends on the current council brought ALL this negativity upon us by refusing a simple advisory vote, and now they have picked him to carry on! He is running on a platform of bringing us together, when it is his friends who have torn us apart.

Mary Souza, on the other hand, has done nothing other than respond to this steamroller administration of four. She is a positive, intelligent, responsive person who has stuck her neck out for all of us. Thank goodness. (I am of the belief that Mary shares the facts and numbers, and that THEY are very negative. Thus her opponents cry, “Negative!” Strange, isn’t it, the way things get twisted around?)

We must not turn our city over to more of the same. Vote for Mary Souza.
