For the Record

Man in Pub: [humoring the "invisible man"] Oh, my. Now, how did that happen? There must be a ghost in here.

Awhile back (September 19) someone posted a comment to this blog with regard to Terry Hickey's recent defeat in the 10th District. An excerpt (typos belong to the poster, not to me):

Anyway its done and over and we have 4 years to work on things.Terri did a nice job however he has not been seen at one community meeting siince the election I hope he plans to stay involved with the district. And it was not just for the election that he or any others were active. We need everyone to stay involved and work together.

So given that comment that Terry has not been seen at any community meetings since the (primary) election, which was eight days earlier, I figured perhaps someone should keep a record of political activity at Morrell Park meetings, since we do, after all, need everyone to stay involved. This will be updated regularly.

September 2007: This wasn't a regular meeting but rather the candidate forum. Ed Reisinger was not in attendance. Terry Hickey and the other two City Council candidates were. Michael Sarbanes was there as a mayoral candidate. 

October 2007: Ed Reisinger was not in attendance. Terry Hickey was.

November 2007: No politicians were in attendance, although Morrell Park Community Association Vice President Carol McCoy met with Terry Hickey during the previous month. However, I'm not going to count that.

So, since someone who prides himself on being tight with Ed Reisinger has pointed out the attendance history of someone who isn't even an elected official, it's interesting that the guy who WAS elected hasn't been seen so far.

For what it's worth, he hasn't been seen at a MPCA meeting since April 2006, but who's counting?
