All the precincts have been counted in the dictricts 1 and 7 Tampa City Council races. It's bad news for Joe Redner.
District 1
Gwen Miller - 56.47 percent
Joe Redner - 43.53 percent
District 7
Joseph Caetano - 59.54 percent
Frank Margarella - 40.46 percent
Okay gang. Question for the comments. Did you want to see Redner win or are you glad that he is not going to serve on City Council. It seems like he blew his momentum by offering people free admission to Mons Venus if they voted.
As a political observer, I think Redner would have been an interesting addition to the Council. It's more from an entertainment perspective, though. Miller didn't impress me with her grasp of policies or even her own record... but at least she is a known factor. So, as a concerned citizen, Miller was the better choice.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm disappointed. I admit to not knowing much about Gwen but from what I've heard, there's not much to know.
ReplyDeleteI wish he had not done that free admission thing. Actually he was encouraging people to vote but ... well --- he probably lost some.
I offered to go on board as his ethics person to kinda stand off to the side and thumbs up or down things. He needs an objective fan, for sure. I am one.
