Hello, my name is Danita Bates Committee Member of the 16th Ward 1st Division, Vice Chairwoman of the 16th Ward 1st Division and a Community Activist/Organizer.
I’m really frustrated with all our local Polical Officials having Community Leaders in their own Communities not having participation in this election. To be told that Committee Members can’t work because The President is scaring people to let us work and being directed to the Committee ot 70 is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. I need clarification. I may be reached at 2677265822 or batesdanita@yahoo.com.
I and my team beat these streets up and we know what our Communities need and want and to not be a part and a lot of lame excuses is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. You all are making it hard by discouraging our Constituents and Communities we vote YA’LL in and this is What we Get TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.
