Beats me, looks like their council doesn’t support him. McGavin is closer to what is going on in Phoenix than me, my county is very conservative.
The position of mayor is pretty powerless. We don’t have a recall, but the City Council is going to try to rein him in a bit. At this point he’s just making a fool of himself. His term is up next year.
Boy, I can remember when Phoenix used to be the most conservative/libertarian city in the country. I think the city motto was something like “It’s none of my business, leave me alone”
