As of 9:58 pm Jeff Cooper is 42 votes in front of Meghan Sahli-Wells. I thought it might be close especially after watching them in two forums. In the first one at Farragut I thought Cooper out-performed Sahli-Wells and demonstrated command of the facts and the job. After the second one in Blair Hills last week, the roles were quite reversed. What’s more, Ms. Sahli-Wells knew her audience and had clearly done her homework ahead of time. Cooper was clearly not on top of the neighborhood issues. (Not to mention that Mr. Sahli-Wells showed up with his totally cool iPad!) I”m not saying, but she may have switched a few voters to her side with that appearance. Maybe.
I don’t know if there are more votes to count or not, but I’ll check in the morning. If it goes to Cooper, I hope Sahli-Wells is not discouraged from making another run in the future. A little seasoning would do her candidacy good.
