Those maps are not finalized yet.  Some of the proposals for the new districts do move Owen Park & Crosbie Heights into district 4.  This was because of those neighborhoods potential and link-ability with downtown.  As a resident of Reservoir Hill I would love for district 4 to include Brady Heights & Reservoir Hill.  But, that is a pipe dream.

So for now, you and Hometown are stuck with Henderson.  Poor guys.

My favorite Henderson sightings are related.  First, after the Gateway Market opened he would just hang out around the entrance making sure everyone saw him.  Second, about three months ago I saw him at the Wal*Mart Neighborhood Market on 21st & Yale.  He saw me, recognized me and ducked for cover behind the photo scanning machine.

Me being me, I went around and stuck out my hand and said hello.

I love to see entrepreneurs get into politics.  They tend to bring that same spirit back to the people they represent and that's the kind of thing that Dist 4 needs more of!

Looks like Blake is waiting for the last minute. Doesn't appear he has registered yet.
