I’m with you. Newbille is a genuinely committed person though (at least as committed as a politician can be). They tried dangling the property tax decrease in front of people last year and then jacked rates up to insane levels this year. All of these people somehow stand to profit from the casino (think Dwight Jones and the “shockoe stadium) in someway. I would bet my house on it.

Is newbille dedicated because she lived in henrico, because she won a special election to get in the board, or because she married a man that embezzled $480,000 from the city?

No she’s committed because she will actually respond to me when I reach out. I assume politicians have family who have benefited in some way (likely illegally and certainly immorally). I guess you and I have a different expectation. I expect 98% of politicians to be terrible, power/money hungry people who seek to exploit political office for their personal gain. My vote is all about who I think is the least terrible.

No she is not, but fortunately her assistant is though.
