		<description><![CDATA[Lately, there has been a great deal of discussion around the position of Deputy Mayor.  Many people are trying to figure out if Stephen Chase will be the Deputy Mayor.  There have been rumors that Ivan Court does not want this; but, could he actually pick someone else?
On February 12th, 2008, the following [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Rumors around the position of Deputy Mayor", url: "http://saintjohnshawn.com/2008/05/16/rumors-around-the-position-of-deputy-mayor/" });</script>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here is a strange story that I read today.
The Saint John Police are spending $13,000 on a T3 personal mobility vehicle.  This is a three-wheeled electric vehicle.  The device can travel at speeds up to 40 km/h and has a siren and high beams.
What gets me is the following:
The T3 will allow police [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Saint John Police to spend $13,000 on a T3 personal mobility vehicle?", url: "http://saintjohnshawn.com/2008/05/15/saint-john-police-to-spend-13000-on-a-t3-personal-mobility-vehicle/" });</script>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today, CBC and the Telegraph-Journal wrote stories around the Ward 2 recount.
It looks like these rejected ballots were actually special ballots, ones that were filled out ahead of time, and not read into the machine until election night.
This was too late to detect the error in the ballots.  However, even though there were problems [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Recount in Saint John Ward 2", url: "http://saintjohnshawn.com/2008/05/15/recount-in-saint-john-ward-2/" });</script>]]></description>

On election night, White was declared the winner by a single vote.  With these two votes now counted, Higgins is now ahead of White by a single vote.

Overall, the turnout was lower then I was expecting at 50.58%; however, 24,078 people did vote, and they did make major changes to Council.

Today, I attended ACAP&#8217;s March Creek Cleanup with Stephen Chase.  The event was sponsored by Canaport LNG.
While the weather wasn&#8217;t the nicest, the turnout was more then the organizers expected!  I think that says a lot about our community.

You gotta check it out:

The event was organized by Fusion Saint John and the Saint John Board of Trade.
We were able to attract most of the candidates, including everyone running for Mayor, who took the time to speak with the people on-on-one.

&#8220;I feel like I&#8217;m a prime minister in a federal election,&#8221; Chase said Thursday, referring to the very personal nature of Federal politics.
