Raleigh voters are completely fine with gentrification continuing. The swing was the establishment picking up District A while Janet Cowell becomes mayor to no one's surprise. Regarding the former race, incumbent Mary Black finished at the bottom--behind cop Whitney Hill.
With Cowell and Mitch Silver (re)entering City Hall on Monday, idealists have to now come to the realization that Raleigh is more establishment than any kind of progressive haven that anyone thinks of--and that's before we get to the cretins on Jones Street.
