If you have not yet voted and plan to vote in person in the Democratic Primary for County Council, let me offer something to think about. I have had the opportunity to work directly with two of the candidates for the Democratic nomination for Council.

Sometimes there are family members who do not get along for this or that reason (sadly, often due to bickering over mere things or inheritance), but it’s always nice when there seems to be an absence of that as we had yesterday, with all the family embracing and rejoicing in the love of one another.
