Reply to comment by caphilldcne in Rep. Boebert’s Informed and Coherent Criminal Code Revision at Yesterday’s Hearing by literpu

A little over 3% of DC residents voted for him, with zero competition. That’s about 24000 out of 786000 people. He’s allowed to destroy the city with his policies when only getting 3% of votes. The city council is a joke and should be dismantled.

Yes. He was running unopposed. Another way to put this is that he’s liked well enough that people didn’t run against him in the primary.

So you want to dismantle the city council? "If conservatives become convinced that they cannot win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject democracy." - David Frum.

Do you even hear yourself? I’ve got a better idea - statehood for DC so we don’t have Boebert and the rest of the congressional clown show all in up in our business.

I’ll come back to this in a year when MPD has less than 3000 officers and and crime is up more than this year. I wonder what quote you’ll use then.
