Greensboro primary results are in

The at large field will be:

Mary Rakestraw
Sandra Anderson- Groat
Robbie Perkins
Bill Knight
Kevin Green
Marikay Abuzuaiter

D1

Diane Bellamy-Small
Tonya Clinkscale

D3

Zack Matheny
Joe Wilson

D5

Trudy Wade
Sandy Carmany



Several things stand out:

Bellamy-Small and Carmany are in trouble. No big surprise there. Their losses in the general election will be a big plus for the city.

Those of us who feel strongly about sending a message to Mitch Johnson and cohorts at City Hall over the Wray Crucifixion need to make sure that Rakestraw, Knight, Wilson, and Wade are elected.

We need to make all the rest of the candidates make their positions known in this matter, with no equivocation in their answers.

The end results will also send a message to the meddlers/enablers at the News and Record that we will not further tolerate their interference in Greensboro's internal affairs by their use of the trial by newspaper strategy.

  1. Bubba, I agree with much of what you have to say. This was a good night.

    Many of the best candidates, however, have a very difficult task ahead. I hope they have the organization and money and help to make it happen.

  2. Watching from outside "the burg" with great interest.

    My God, I wish some of these pathetic suck-ups & enablers to the current set of power-mongers would fall and fall hard.
