We really need "None of the Above" on the ballot. If that wins, there's a new election and none of the candidates in the previous one can run.

In the last Mayoral election, Mays stated how he could bring all these jobs to Flint. What he outlined did not require him being in office. Eric, if you want us to believe your hype, bring those jobs now. Then you can campaign saying "I brought all these jobs to Flint and I can bring more!" Without those jobs, it's just political hot air like all the other candidates,

I am not wild about any of the choices and I have not thrown my support behind anyone.

Debunker keeps asking everyone else to do the research. If he has any observations and knowledge, then he should bring it forward. Debunker likes to spin confusion.

Davenport could not beat jackie poplar, so I don"t see him as a serious contender.

Mays is said to be in Genesee township helping Tom Joubran with the genesee Township recall. So the question is whether he isreally serious about the race. I suspected Joubran was playing a role in this recall and he and Mays have known each other since Mays was young.

Walling is not what Flint needs and he has made many bad decisions.

I really don't know much about the other candidates and I am waiting to see what theyare all about.

I saw Mays plans for selling water. Looked like a Pyramid to me.

Wasn't there also a bread plan & something along the lines of Amway?

Mays says he once worked for Amway! And he once had a soap business.

Debunker likes to spin confusion. Really? I spin confusion? I say people should look into who is the best candidates for the job and that is spinning confusion? If that is bad thing then I am a very bad person. People should be MORE suspicious of EVERYONE running for office and that should be a maxim for citizens to live by.

Facebook members at the City Council are upset that Jackie Poplar endorsed Walling on the council floor. She really is a loose cannon.

Since the council lets Walling & Eason do pretty much whatever they want with little or no objection, what difference does it make?

Nothing has changed for Eric in this race. He told a block club that he spent $30,000 in his last election and he still lost.

What is in this race for Donna Poplar, AC Dumas and Eric. Eric says they want to take control of the council and make him council president. That is a scary thought!

What position des Donna want now?

I have to ask: how often do you get called a racist for saying negative, but true, things about black people?
