Not sure why Taylor and Reese are considered incumbents in their respective Wards even though they both act and print on documents that they are already in that position. This is not on you but the powers that be. I also wish I would have saved an email I wrote to Robinson about a year ago complaining about the gerrymandering of the Wards during redistricting and also the ethics violations and he replied that he pretty much does not do reporting on city affairs anymore. Priceless... This is what we get when reporters are paid by the people they are supposed to report on. For that reason I will upgrade my subscription today for your newsletter today. What are my perks! LOL
Reno City Council Members Taylor, Reese and Martinez were never elected to their positions. But their opponents -- Frank Perez (Ward 1); Brian Cassidy (Ward 6); Denise Myer (Ward 3) --are actually RUNNING for election to office, not looking to be APPOINTED. My, what a novel idea!
I don't believe in politicians being appointed; the constituents of a particular ward or district deserve to vote when there is a vacancy created. The cost to the City of Reno or any entity is worth it, as I'm sure voters would agree.
