| Yolen Endorses Nobody
Retiring City Council Member Roy Yolen has continued to refuse to endorse any of the contenders for his district's seat. The silence is highly unusual, with only a few months to go before the elections are held, and some analysts are saying that it is a particular snub at Douglass Finlay, who is seeking the City Council Leader spot through Yolen's district. |
