Imagine centering your political campaign on wanting more traffic, more noise and more crashes in the neighborhood.
It’s kinda covered in what you said but I feel “pollution” needs to be specified.
She knows her target audience, who are not smart enough to understand that more bikes and transit means less road traffic, which is better for car drivers. People with one car want the ability to drive thousands of cars. It's beyond greedy and stupid.
Hope she suffers an embarrassing loss over such a stupid campaign.
Most Americans are incapable of seeing the big picture. They'll drive to the polling station cursing about all the bicyclists in the road, vote against bike lanes "because I don't use them", and drive home still cursing about all the bicyclists in the road. They could have been on a bike path out of your way, you know!
This depends on the education of the average American voter.
It worked for Premier doug ford (kinda like a governor) in Ontario, whom also ran on "strong mayor powers". You know strong powers like the province telling you its illegal to build bike lanes in your city for your constituents.
That's the crack head?
Brother to the crack head
Two of them? That sounds awful.
What a stupid bitch
So she promises safer streets, but wants to remove bike lanes? So how is she going to make streets safer? Reduce all speed limits to 20 MPH?
Safe(R) streets = more police
Go to hell
LOL, imagine being a "local business owner" claiming to be for "thriving local business," yet being so nonsensically, terminally ignorant that you make fighting against bike lanes your central campaign issue even though bike lanes are actually good for business!
What a catastrophic dipshit.
That's what I was thinking. You can fit a lot more people in your [local business] with a simple bike rack, than a strip mall parking lot where you gotta designate "15 minutes or get towed!" because there's only like 5 spots in front of your place.
