Ellen O. Moyer Government Center
Will Building Be Named After Embattled Mayor? When the Council Agenda was emailed from City Hall yesterday, we were initially shocked that Dave Cordle was sponsoring a bill to name the building at 145 Gorman Street in honor of his nemesis. Cordle is a Republican–Ellen is not. Cordle took swipe after swipe at the current [...]

It has been said that Washington delights in ruining the lives of people and apparently some of that sentiment has run over the borders into Annapolis. Over the past 24 hours, we have had the first black mayoral candidate celebrating her [...]
And Then There Were Five
HACA Mayoral Debate Well Attended There were probably between 100 and 200 people in attendance at last night’s Annapolis Mayoral debate (sponsored by The Housing Authority of City of Annapolis, HACA) held at the Eastport Community Center. The evening started off with a moment of silence for Annapolis City Firefigfhter John P. Smith who passed [...]
Annapolis Facebook Race

The Field Gets Crowded
The primary ballot for Mayor of Annapolis is likely to resemble the 2003 Gubernatorial Ballot from California. It has been reported that Gilbert Renaut has tossed his hat into the ring for Mayor in 2009. I suspect that details will be following shortly.

Who You Gonna Trust?
