[Durham INC] New from the Rev-elution

[Stacey Poston]

Anita Daniels is against the amendment.

Elaine Hyman is not.

I voted for Anita, worked with her at the City and know she is smart,
talented and highly capable.  I gave her my vote and would again.

I support putting the person in office that the people elected, Fred
Foster.  If he is not ready to serve moving down the list in order of votes
tallied.
