Dear cat2222,

Just in case you didn't notice...

Scott Avedisian raised taxes EVERY YEAR FOR 18 YEARS IN A ROW! Then, I came around and campaigned for over 700 days in a row and spent over $40,000 dollars of my own money to "Cut Taxes - Cut Spending" Then. at the 2017 budget hearings Avedisian tried what he had done so many times before. He introduced 29 new, tax-increasing amendments and was denied for the first time in his Mayoral life. In fact, he was denied for the first, second, third and so on for 29 times in a row!!! AND, the vote was unanimous every time! You can call that a huge coincidence if you like. Every City Council member has credited my campaign in varying degrees. That was caused by me! My rally. There was no other reason that any member of the City Council has pointed out EXCEPT my campaign, so I ask you this honest question. If my campaign didn't effect the vote, and the entire City Council had never denied a tax increase BEFORE my campaign, then what the hell, caused them to say "No." this time?

The truth is, that the City Council heard loud and clear from their constituents. They were told "Just say "NO!" by the vast majority of the voters that they count on for re-election. It took courage to make that stand against Avedisian. They had never done that before. The taxpayers saved money. The message was delivered. I called that a "win". You can call it anything you and CrickeeRaven decide. I don't really care.
