Letter: Brown used incumbency to unfair advantage
As the daughter of a television anchorman – the late Irv Weinstein – I’ve always been attentive to how stories get written. As a former elected council member and mayor who served 16 years in public office, I know something about what it takes to run, win and serve. And as a former resident of Buffalo and Kenmore, now living in Irvine, Calif., I’ve been watching the race for Buffalo mayor with interest.
While I am not here to disparage Mayor Byron Brown, his win is less impressive to me than India Walton’s achievement in winning the primary and garnering a significant level of support in the general election despite the unfair advantage given the man who lost the primary and who, in my opinion should not have been given a second bite at the apple.
