I assume Stokes keeps getting voted in because people think he is related to Carl (or maybe people think he IS carl)

This has been my theory too. Up until the last election he didn't have even an email listed that you could reach him by. I actually think that if Franca Muller-Paz had been running in a normal year (as opposed to the height of pandemic with ever shifting lockdowns and restrictions and safety concerns) she could have unseated him.

He does seem very responsive on issues relating to the CSX tracks in his district. Unfortunately it's to advocate for CSX.

Really hope Franca decides to give it another go in 2024. If she got in, she’d be top tier of this list by the end of her first term no doubt.

I think the name recognition she built last time around would go a long way toward building her chances the next time around.

And how that recommends him to be on city council is beyond me. I had to deal with Carl many times over the years and he's a POS.
