this is a really close race. i cant help to think that if harkey just let her endorsements speak for themselves, instead of getting negative, and calling harman a "liberal" who makes money of a real estate.
im all against career politicians, but 800k for a city council person to buy their seat is bothersome as well
i wonder if the harkey camp wont show up now for the june 6th election considering how vicious this one got. maybe that larry guy will make it interesting if harkey and co. dont show up.

This lead can certainly be made up in late absentees and provisionals. Stay tuned. Won't be final until later in the week.
