Well, now here is an interesting bit of news. Former Ward III Council Member Jeff Vaught has come out in support of Morgan Rainey for that position in this upcoming election.
His support of a candidate is a definite reason NOT to vote for that person.
Let's have a history lesson. In 2015 Jeff Vaught filed, along with three other candidates, to run for mayor. With four candidates filed that meant that a primary was needed to whittle it down to two. Well, Jeff Vaught was not one of the two top folks. He did not even get a majority of the votes in his own ward, Ward III. Guess the voters in that ward finally realized what kind of a person he was.
Now, fast forward to 2017, when his council seat was up for grabs. Three people, including Vaught filed. Guess what? He came in third, which eliminated him from being on the ballot for that seat. He was going to be done serving on the council. Wow, guess that the voters of Ward III really felt that they did not want him around anymore. That was two elections that he failed to be successful in, while being an elected official in that ward.
So, the point is, if she (Morgan Rainey) gets his support, then one can surmise that they most likely think alike. Hmmmm, but the voters in Ward III have previously rejected his thinking, so one would think that they should probably reject her too.
As such, the election of Dave Myres to represent Ward III could prove to be very positive for the residents of that ward.
