Strategically thinking: The Mayor's Camp would keep a tarnished candidate like Prater-Holliday in the race to split the votes easily. Isn't it strange that she's received so much support over a clean, democratically endorsed candidate such as Copeland-Mitchell? If Prater-Holliday is paid to stay in the race and she takes votes away from the more credible candidate, it will be an easy slide-in for Burgess. Great Strategy and the Winner is Rev. Ricky Burgess!
Think, it is the only way for Burgess's camp (Mayor) to win by trying to Strangle Copeland-Mitchell's chances of winning by firing Copeland-Mitchell from her job to smother her finances, stop union support by overlooking or lying to Union Leaders about Prater-Holliday's real record as revealed in four past elections for different offices.
PS: Chris Potter doesn't help much either. He is very partial to Prater-Holliday (Very Tarnished) in all his comments. I think Chris Potter should report the facts and leave partiality out of his comments.
