Berea Deserves Better – Update
6 November 2011
I had intended, when I posted Berea Deserves Better (on Nov 2nd) to refrain from offering an endorsement in this year’s mayoral race. But I have since reconsidered.
I now deem Cyril Kleem to be too dysfunctional to serve. As a consequence, I believe Berea voters should deny him a second term.
Yes, I did give his administration a passing grade in my original essay. But I now conclude that the credit for that rightfully belongs to other city officials — who have persevered under trying conditions.
I retain concerns about Gene Zacharyasz’ lack of governmental experience (and also about some of the people with whom he seems affiliated). Nevertheless, I now believe him to be the better choice.
I will, therefore, be voting for Zacharyasz for Mayor of Berea on November 8th.
