The only disenfranchised voters who would support Weinzapfel are the folks being funded by Soros. Most of the astute are aware that radical left wing DA’s that are destroying the rule of law are in office due to Soros money. How far removed is Weinzapfel from the DAs in St Louis, Minneapolis, Portland, Chicago, NYC, Seattle. Philadelpia, and other democrat socialist cesspools. We all know that in the dead of night in a backroom deal with nominal republicans Weinzapfel attempted to steal our Homestead exemption credit and burdened our city with a useless overpriced water meter scheme. Is the company that secured the water meter deal monetarily helping fund Weinzapfels campaign. Hopefully most hoosier are smart enough to see through this. Law enforcement is becoming more aware of democrat DA’s and their war against cops. We need to support our police by voting against all democrats running for elected office.
