And another...

Ari Herzog just announced on Facebook that he's pulled papers for Councillor-At-Large.

I'm confident in stating that he's the first Newburyport political candidate ever to announce his candidacy (or at least intentions) on Facebook.

For what that's worth.

Things are heating up.

Drats! If my landlord's father hadn't come over right as Richard Jones was giving me this news over the phone, I would have beat both of you to it. Well, Ari would be the one to announce via Facebook ...

Ah, the ole "landlord's father" line.

Never get tired of hearing that one.

I really do have to get some new lines.

Ari's paving the way for the other bloggers....Gillian, Tom, PPreservationist, Mary Baker, make your move!

This seems like an appropriate time to announce my bid to unseat the Ward 4 Councillor!!

Now there's a scenario I can see ... a bunch o' bloggers at the table ...

Aside from this rather incestuous circle, who in this town has ever heard of Ari Herzog?

Tom Salemi said...

Hey, the guy put his name out there.

I give him credit for that.

Anon,

More people than had heard of Kathleen O'Connor Ives two years ago, I'd guess.
