It was not much of a shock to me that Hartman got the top spot on Tuesday. Well a lot of people thought Beth Olson would get it, I did not. Olson finished first in the primaries.
I knew the people voting in the primaries where for the most part big time supporters of a candidate and or special interest groups. These are the people that always go out and vote in a primary. Well most of the general public stays home. Something I have never understood. People always say I wish I had a chose. The fact is you do. A lot of good candidates get knocked out in the primary because people don't go vote.
Anyway Hartman got a lot of support from moderate republicans in the general election. I hope he see this and stays in the middle of the road on his decisions. I hope he does not become a puppet for one side or the other.
I know he is a democrat but as I have said many times he is a more center candidates then was Olson or Hall. I believe Dan will look at both sides of the issue before making his decision.

Agree with you on this one. Hartman is pretty easy to stomach. He doesn't come across as one of your typical local Progressive automatons.
Side note: Last night on the news, Boyle actually pronounced the word especially as "expecially". Wish I had it recorded still. I could probably build an entire show around this.
i think we need more middle of the roaders instead of all of us lefties or righties..
I think Hartman wil be a good councilor. Time will tell.
I also hope he stay's in the middle of road. John you are right a lot of people voted for him that would normally vote others.
Dan you got a lot of support from middle of the road voters I hope you stay that way. Don't be a puppet for a special interest group.
