Pat Ryan will not seek reelection in 2015

Edmond bus is Edmond's transit system. Sooner Express (the bus to Norman) I'm not sure but the obvious reason for it the massive university.

Based on conversations with regular riders I've visited with in line and on the bus, many who clearly know each other well for multi-day ridership, I'd say the success of Sooner Express partnership between CART and Gometro is the number of state and federal workers who prefer to bus to the headache/expense of daily commute and parking.

Thank you, Plutonic Panda. I don't have a dime left in my checking account, so I am gonna need all the luck I can get!

Well, if you run, I'll donate what I can. Won't be much, but it'll be something. Keep us updated and posted so we can support!

Fill us in Dennis. What is your platform and what are your aspirations?

[Dennis Heaton]

Urban Pioneer...Sorry, I haven't been ignoring your question. The flu took me out of action this past Monday and I am just now getting up and about.

To answer your question...I can only say this, "If elected, I promise that no one living in Ward 8 will ever have to go a day without an RC Cola and Moonpie!"

As a Ward 8 resident, I think we have been well served by Mr Ryan. He has been responsive to every inquiry I ever sent and even met with me a time or two to discuss a couple issues. Concerning MAPS, I have heard him say on several occasions, to paraphrase, "the people voted for it and it is our duty to build it to the best of our ability as promised." He has served with integrity and dignity. We have been fortunate to have him as our council representative and whomever is elected to replace him should continue his cooperative attitude with his peers on the council and listening to the voters.

Another candidate for this seat. This article gives scant information about him or his views. Hopefully that will be forthcoming.
