Oh yes, Rick Correntes slogan is gaining traction each time it is said. This was the argument he made in 2016 as well. He said Mayor Avedisian and the City Council were so terrified of his campaign that they "cut" taxes (they didn't cut taxes) because of the political realties.

If Rick Corrente is going to "take credit" for the 2016 tax rate, shouldn't he also be taking the blame for this years maximum tax increase we just received? You can't have it both ways, Rick. In fact, had Corrente been paying attention he would know the decision to "hold the line" on taxes in '16 is DIRECTLY RELATED to the max tax increase we just received. That is reckless and irresponsible budgeting, and Rick Corrente is claiming he was on the front lines for it. Even when he's trying to promote himself, he ends up doing much more harm. Rick Corrente wants to beat Joe Solomon in the 2018 Mayors race. The problem is Rick can't even defeat the old Rick Corrente from 2016 Mayors race. Rick Corrente sees the writing on the wall, he is desperately trying to spin his overwhelming rejection "as a win". You know how people will let you know your message won, Rick? BY CASTING A VOTE FOR YOU in the Sept primary. That is the only measure of success in elections. All of this other garbage you speak of is NONSENSE! No matter how hard Rick Corrente tries to spin it, he is weeks away from becoming a 2 time election loser.
