CARSON FOR COUNCIL?
Marion County Democrats chose Andre Carson, the grandson of 7th District Congresswoman Julia Carson, to fill the vacancy left behind by Patrice Abduallah on the City-County Council. Abduallah resigned after it was discovered he did not live in his district.
Carson received 14 out of 20 precinct committeemen votes for the spot. I have met Carson and he is personable and engaging. It is my understanding that Democrats will try to put him on the ballot. I don’t know if they legally can since all the deadlines have passed.
Stay tuned.
