#Lowkey tho if a masked serial murderer wanted to off Baldwin Id be on their side SO FAST

[x-h3kk3ning-x]

I make jokes on occassion about the place I live being Gotham but with more trees (anywhere, USA) but like....yall...I cannot stress enough...How much This Municipal Election fucking matters and how god damned...ya know what here...

Raleigh, NC is one of the fastest growing cities in America. I HATE that about it. For YEARS we have had a Mayor named Mary Ann Baldwin, who took any bribe a real-estate developer would give her. She even, along with city council, lengthened her term WITHOUT TELLING THE PUBLIC!! Using some loophole in the city constitution or whatever. My hometown and birthplace has become gentrification displacement fucking central!

But THIS ELECTION is THE FIRST ONE that Baldwin is stepping down and NOT RUNNING AGAIN!! Do you want to know who the feont runners are for her position?

A woman whose entire job over the past few years has been converting the land that the Dorthea Dix Mental Hospital was on into a city destination park.

And a guy whose website looks like THIS...

His name is Terrance Ruth so his campaing slogan, I SHIT YOU NOT is "TRUTH FOR RALEIGH"

We don't HAVE a city seawall, thank fuck; But--ya know--at this point I wouldnt even be surprised if one magically blew up and flooded us.
