Something pleasant in local politics

Just got a precinct-walking visit from Richelle Noroyan running for city council. I said I was concerned that the city council wasn't doing enough to make the city livable for working class people and she said all the right things after that about infrastructure and housing and even race.

Having talked to other people since then, I believe she was just agreeing with me to get my vote. Union folks say she sides with management all the time and doesn't care about wages and working conditions, and she's cozy with the people I despise in local politics (Take Back Santa Cruz/Santa Cruz Neighbors).

Currently voting for Leonie Sherman and Bruce Van Allen.
