Haven’t posted about the Buffalo mayor stuff in a few days but Rasheed Wyatt doesn’t move the needle for me other than crowding the ever-growing field. Don’t see a path for him to win unless it’s a total shitshow

Internet was not great in the convention center so no live posting. My bad. Some takeaways though:
-Sean Ryan has a large war chest ($500k) and is ready for the race
-Everyone spoke about the budget but Chris Scanlon said the city has to get its house in order before looking for more funding

Whitfield’s candidacy will be interesting. His tack is that Buffalo doesn’t need another politician, it needs an administrator. That message will play very well in this race
The political part still matters tho. It remains to be seen if he can assemble enough of a coalition & cash to be viable

I’m listening to the @podsaveamerica.bsky.social interview with Harris’ campaign staff. A couple things jump out:
-There wasn’t enough time on the clock for a pres campaign
-They view the anti-trans ads as not being effective on their own merits but more about economic mismanagement (correct, imo)

Scanlon is shows hand early with his campaign strategy—“I want to be bold & different but the Council is holding me back”
He knows there is zero chance in hell most (if any) of this gets approved but he does get to say he tried right away to make City Hall run differently from Byron Brown’s tenure

This is very good messaging. It’s going to be an incredibly difficult campaign but this is a great start
I’m Sean Ryan, and I’m running for Mayor of Buffalo because Buffalo deserves better.
We all work hard for our city, and we deserve a city government that works hard for us.
If you want a better Buffalo as much as I do, I hope you’ll join our campaign.
