They came .. they saw .. they got involved
No matter what you might think about their politics, you’ve got to admire how deeply four former City Council candidates have immersed themselves in civic affairs.
Rarely have I gone to a public event around here recently without seeing Marikay Abuzuaiter (at-large), Cyndy Hayworth (District 3), Joel Landau (at-large) or Donna Riechmann (at-large) there.
Or all of the above.
And not just for show. They were actively engaged .. i.e., actually working, not shaking hands and kissing babies.
All lost in their bids for public office in 2007 but all have stayed committed to public service. Some may run again. Hayworth told me last week she probably will.
It’s impressive to see them walking the campaign talk rather than waiting till the next filing period (for those who may file) to pop out the woodwork.
