Surrogate circulates petition for Reaves

August 29th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

Well, well, well, the answer to how Michael Reaves, tight lipped, insolent and uncommunicative obtained 20 signatures on the nominating petition for mayor is, that HE didn’t. Ann Parker, wife of Bruce Parker, twice defeated in the race for mayor, did it for him. Does she intend to listen to citizen commentary as well? Will she act as liaison between the ‘hairy unwashed’, the ‘malcontents’ as her husband calls them, and his eminence should he be elected?

This is where it gets fun. Lets all sit on the bleachers, sip mint juleps and do some serious people watching between now and November, it could get interesting.

    Mike Reaves for Mayor….scary thought there.

    He couldn’t cut it as Police Chief…joins some retired cops club and vows to solve Leah’s case…

    has a business here in Coquille…probably thinks being mayor will help his business.

    I can’t imagine what will happen to our fair city with Reaves as mayor. Wasn’t Reaves and his micromanaging nightmare as Chief enough for this community?

    Have you read concilor Parker’s letter to the editor? These people need to be drug up from the gutter kicking and screaming into the light of day. Honestly, I don’t think Reaves has a prayer, I know I will certainly do everything I can to discourage votes for him
