Real quick, it looks like America’s Vancouver may wind up with a new mayor.
City Councilman Tim Leavitt held a 1,750 lead over incumbent Vancouver Mayor Royce Pollard after initial ballots were counted Tuesday evening.
With perhaps 7,000 ballots left to be tallied in the coming days, it may be some time before we know the winner.
Yeah, I don’t know. That would be a lot to make up. Might be time for everyone to begin resigning themselves to the existing I-5 spans over the Columbia. We’ll see if there’s any movement in the election numbers as the days go by.
Jon;
Any comment on reports that some people are proposing that Vancouver change it’s name to Fort Vancouver?
Personally, I think the idea of building a 12-lane bridge at that crossing never made any sense to begin with–truckers can after all go around on I-205, and that’s exactly what they do. My sympathies to Clark County’s children and poor, however, who will both continue to suffer from very limited public transit, as well as other services.
