The race for mayor of Winnipeg continues, this week with a 7th individual adding their name to the campaign – former 2010 mayoral contender Judy W-L! Her addition adds another female to the campaign and a strong North End voice. Judy was also one of the forces behind our POLITIX initiative forming in 2010.
Candidates as of this week:
– Brian Bowman
– Michael Fillion
– Paula Havixbeck
– Robert Falcon-Oulette
– Gord Steeves
– Michael Vogiatzakis
– Judy Wasylycia-Leis
AYO bumped into Robert Falcon Oulette at our 1181 Meet Me @ the Bell Tower event last week and is officially the first of mayoral candidates to have rung the bell. He also attended one of the POLITIX events we have had so far this year at Neechi Commons, discussing Municipal politics (Judy also came by, and Paula sent her regrets).
We have begun our Twitter outreach to individual candidates as well, asking if they are interested in hosting a COFFEE HOUSE or a BRAIN STORM with our crew via twitter. So far, Judy, Brian and Paula have responded, although, to be fair we have not been able top find twitter handles for either of the Michaels who are running.
