…Recalling him, or countenancing the idea of recalling him, would be stupid, and only play into the hands of the Lizz Brown wing of St. Louis politics, and their anger over Sherman George. It’s not as if the choice is Francis Slay vs George Wallace. When it comes to St. Louis Mayoral politics, you’re either going to get a pandering white, or a Bosleyite black. (Clarence Harmon was an accident of history, IMO). Remember, if Slay is recalled, the President of the Board of Aldermen becomes Mayor, and that is currently Lewis Reed.
Keep that in mind as any pro-recall PR tries to use white themes to appeal to white city voters. They’re trying to trick you.
