Reply to comment by GroundbreakingArt248 in West Philadelphia Council race: Gauthier’s challenger drops out by PienotPi

I'd rather have them run unopposed than have someone run a disruptive campaign they know they can't win for political clout. Just burns money and time from both sides that could be put towards the actual governance. That being said, if Gauthier wasn't doing her job with aplomb I might feel differently.
