Ed Clere is running for mayor of New Albany, and I support him

269

Here’s a news item from yesterday.

I’m famously inclined to wordiness, and never much bothered when readers comment about a disturbing need to consult their dictionaries. That’s because I might as well use the words I’ve learned, and as far as I’m concerned, everyone else can learn them, too.

This said, an uncharacteristically brief announcement.

I’ll be supporting Ed Clere as he seeks to become mayor of New Albany. My reasons are many, but can be distilled to this: He is the best candidate, possessing the interpersonal skills, governmental experience and basic intelligence to be a very fine mayor.

And we haven’t had a fine mayor for far too long. There’ll be plenty of time to debate and discuss the fine points. For now, you know where I’m choosing to stand.

Transparency is important, don’t you think?
