Justice?

Today is vote day. The newspapers are calling it the most important election in our city. They may be right. Right now, the news is showing the percentage of votes to the repective candidates. The person I supported is in second not too far behind Mayor Nagin who is in first. To my surprise, more people came back to the city to vote. I overheard people say that they drove all the way from Texas just to vote. I truly hope that people based their vote on who will help this city move toward a more stronger and safer city as opposed to who resembles thier complexion more. This entire election has been about the race card. I just want things to be better. But isn't that a false hope with any politician/election. Nobody gets in office and change things to benefit the community. It has always been help those you know and those that have the money to pour into your campaign. I guess it will always be politics as usual. Other than that, my day was great. I bought some cd's, washed my car, and just enjoyed the day. Hopefully tomorrow will be just as good.
