I’m going to LMAO if terps wins…
This proves you cannot save some people from themselves. As long as Roanoke City has uneducated non-contributing dimbulbs dominating the polls, you people will get more of the same.
I look for the all-Democrat council to suddenly decide maybe the city needs to continue the meals tax after all. Now that all the ballots are counted up and everything.
Congrats to belle! Ithink the people of Roanoke thought back to the last time they elected a Republican as Mayor. It turned out to be a disaster and then launched Ralph Smith into the General Assembly where he continues to haunt the city,(and all of us) every day. In all good conscience they just couldn’t take that chance again.
