ELECTIONS: Ward 1 – many candidates, very strong campaigners

Now here’s the constituency to watch for excitement, rock solid campaigning and effective efforts by almost every one of the candidates….

James BLAIR
Who? That’s Blair’s problem. He’s an unknown and unless he can drastically change that, his odds of winning are very poor.

Maurice BRENNER (Rgnl)
Incumbent, rock solid reputation as councillor for many years, Mayor material, well known throughout the community and with the majority of voters. Solid bet to be returned but he knows not to presume and that every campaign demands effort and commitment. Brenner likely will deliver….solid bet to be returned.

Abdulla MIR
New comer but campaigning like an experienced pro. Knocking on doors and shaking hands everywhere; CV may be weak but he campaigns like a stalwart. He will make a decent show of it but it isn’t his time just yet. Solid candidate.

Jamie NYE
Unknown candidate which will be his Achilles heel. Only path the decent results will be a lot of door-to-door handshaking. Otherwise, this candidate will find the campaign climb insurmountable. Save your bet.

Michael SAMLALSINGH
Another unknown candidate; not likely to garner significant votes, definitely not enough for victory. May be in it just for the exposure? Save your bet.

Jeremy STEINHAUSEN
And yet another unknown not likely to garner significant votes, definitely not enough for victory. May be in it just for the exposure also? Save your bet.

Prya VADIVEL
And yet another unknown again but this one’s a dark horse; campaigns like Teddy Roosevelt, ‘speaking softly but carrying a big stick;” intelligent and successful business woman who is very astute in her campaign strategy. She picks her fights well and comes to each battle armed with business success, brains, productive perspective and diligent determination. This candidate should not be disregarded. Place your bets on this dark horse.
