Jeannie May reformer? Answer NO
The idea that Candidate for District Leader Jeannie May does not take orders from anyone is ridiculous. Joanne Seminara (60 AD District Leader) is the person who is pulling the stings of Jeannie May's Candidacy(just look at the people who are collecting her signatures for her all Seminara people and those who are not where probably paid) I did not know reformers believed in buying elections (Jeannie May is no reformer). Joannes style is collecting barley enough signatures to make the ballot(she has no real supporters) so Dilia Schack contesting JMs signatures is no surprise. IF you do not collect the necessary signatures then you have not right to be on the ballot (Any reformer will tell you that you must follow the law) I don't know what you mean by writing that Jeannie May "has nothing to gain from the position she absolutely does being a district leader allows you to build a base for a race in the future and if you remember 2006 when May announced she was a candidate for State Senate and then State Assembly she is obviously looking for a paid political job in politics. I am not saying that the system does not need some changes but you are taking a huge step down by supporting the Seminara/May team for Brooklyn. They are much worse the status quo.
