Start with the mayor and go down. What a mess. I actually thought the mayor was awesome but wow did reality hit me. The head of housing needs to go and many others.

Changing mayors probably is not going to help much unless some mayor is going to address that issue.

So embarrassing for a city that has had close to 100 percent democratic mayors, 80 percent democratic governors. Democratic senators and house reps and state house forever. That is just embarrassing. And our state is rich compared to most states in The us.
