Courtney Welch has won the special City Council election today with both precincts reporting. Council elect Welch replaces Christian Patz who announced last May he would resign his seat. Ms Welch who is a housing policy director, took 641 votes or 55.35% of the votes over challenger Charlotte Danielsson-Chang who got 517 votes according to the Alameda County registrar of voters.
Good for Courtney. Actually, I liked both women and either one would have been qualified to be on our council.
ReplyDeleteShe isn't interested in helping out people that already live here. Only people that want to move in that can't afford to. Pretty amazing she won by telling voters she isn't going to do anything to make Emeryville better for them. Emeryville has a lot of masochist voters. I guess that's better than sadist voters. But what about voters who want to live in a nice town? Not many of them here.
