Thank you, Commissioner Nancy Sikes-Kline, Mayor Tracy Wilson Upchurch, Commissioner Roxanne Horvath and Commissioner John Otha Valdes for ending the Establishment's goofy charade of attempting to erase our voting rights to elect the Mayor of St. Augustine, Florida.
The vote was unanimous, 4-0.
Vice Mayor Leanna Sophia Amaru Freeman was inexplicably absent.
St. Augustine residents still get to elect their Mayor.
The enemies of democracy have been defeated, once again.
Thanks to everyone who came and spoke out against this immodest proposal.
No thanks to those who made it, or sought to "clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests," in the immortal words of FDR.
In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!
