More drama over committee challengers

With nominating petitions in, now is the season for challenges to the qualifiers, and feelings continue to run hot, with one Ward leader hitting the lawyer representing some union challengers. Apparently this is yet another proxy battle in the ongoing war between Brady and Dougherty -- as with so many local struggles, the Big Dogs are always the unseen forces in the room. [Might I put in a plug here for The Scorecard? Can't tell the players without one!] Meanwhile, Albert shares evidence that Ward leaders are circling the wagons around their own. Boy, the functioning of the processes of democracy certainly ruffle feathers!!
