Gigi, Please make the correction that Mr. Wilds has actually only
raised $47,615 with $18,5000 actually being given by Mr. Wilds.  This
is a major difference and should be pointed out. For those who may be
interested the link for his financial report is

 By mistake, I left out a section regarding financial management with
should have been included for clarity as below:
 
According to published reports, Mr. McDuffie is the leading fundraiser,
over $90,000.00.  Yet a week before the election he only had a little
over $14,000.00 on hand with a staff and future expenses.  That's over
$60,000.00 spent before the Election Day!  Mr. Wilds raised over
$60,000.00, and has over $24,000.00 left for the last week with a small
staff, only spending a little over a third of his funds up front,
utilizing other cost-effective measures, up close and personal contact
to reach out to our residents for their vote, displaying appreciation
and accountability for the public's trust in the use of these funds.
(Left out by accident-now for clarity)
The logic considered is that Mr. McDuffie ran for the same seat only 2
years ago finishing 3rd in the vote still has immediate name
recognition from this race.  Mr. Wilds last ran for office in 2006 for
the same seat.  The most recent name recognition provides Mr. McDuffie
with a clear advantage.  So how/what level of wisdom gained from prior
election experiences was applied in the use of these current funds to
show accountability for wise choices in assessing your adversaries and
campaign strategy in the race?
 
The question also becomes, how would these different financial
management styles transfer over if elected in considering legislative
and DC budgetary matters for our agencies and the expectations for the
use of public funds?  How can the person be taken seriously? Very
important questions since there are some agencies such as DCPS who are
constantly over budget and in need of serious guidance and
accountability in using public funds.  Who has shown the wisdom and
accountability in the use of others or their own funds in this race? 
Frank Wilds!
