Tune in at 2:00…
When Josh and Erica will be live-slogging today’s council hearing, at which all 99 contenders for City Council Position #9 (formerly Jim Compton’s seat) will get their three minutes at the mic.
We’ll hear from folks like Dr. Ed Song, who, according to his cover letter, was once “full of social anxiety” but now “hear[s] the distant drums” and the “battle cry, ‘it’s time to cross another river and fight for our liberties without compromising our security from terrorists”; Guy Burneko, who “understand[s] by experience and by certificated training how to work noncercively for consensus and concurrence”; and Evan Sutton, whose “relevant experience” includes being “a fast and efficient bartender” and who has worked “in food service settings ranging from fine dining to hip-hop nightclubs.”
Stay tuned.
Erica is NOT making this stuff up.
Hopefully we'll get some clarification on Dr. Ed Song's "distant drums" at today's hearing!
