"The GOAT Black City" The Official: ATL Discussion Thread

Atlanta mayoral election, 2017 - Wikipedia

Hard to say with something like a Mayoral race. They don't have a lot of record to look at lobbying, voting etc. I would have to go back and refresh my memory but I feel like she rand a bit of a dog whistle campaign against the black establishment that Kasim is a branch of relative to City Hall.

Ultimately you are correct and that's what why Kasim took it. My only thought is that Kwanza and Caesar could split enough of the vote to open the door for her.

Yeah they are both cut from the exact same cloth as Kasim so it didnt make sense to me to see them both run at the same time.

Um sorry to burst your bubbles but peter aman is going to win. He's a Bain consulting guy and a democrat. Bain consulting has Strategically entered elections to win, like with romney and Bain has vp and president level ex employees in almost all of Atlantas top companies. They purposefully will support another black candidate financially to split the black vote to win.

lol Nikkas got no clue what's going on

Btw Kasim will endorse peter if it comes down to it


Not making this up at all. And peter will
Choose michael sterling as his running mate to get the stamp of approval

Was getting my haircut and my barber was telling me they're looking to revamp the entire MLK drive near the new dome, near the AUC.

Bring public transit over here, basically look to attract others to the area

Traffic is already rough but it'll probably get worse. I forgot the timetable he said though

maybe it's not. I know black people expect two blacks at then end and that's being done on pupose

You basically have the same theory of the vote being split as I did but with an admittedly better candidate and scenario. I skipped over Aman but that makes a ton of sense.

Of all the candidates I see Caesar Mitchell, Atlanta City Council President, as the most likely new mayor of the city. I do think Norwood will be a legitimate threat considering how she almost beat Kasim last time.

Yea this has been in the works since 2015:

It'll be more of a boulevard feel with fountains, better lighting, wider streets
