Estele Borges is the winner of this year's mock draft for the city council committees.

She got 12 1/2 points. 1 point for each correct spot on the board and 1/2 point for each correct committee but not the correct spot (chair, vice chair, 3rd).

I wonder where she will want Barry to take her or lunch?

Wanna play a game?

After the Inauguration on Monday, the City Council will meet to select committee assignments and elect a President.

The committee assignment selection process is very much like a sports league draft. Councilors take turns according to seniority and select committees. A councilor who has served as Chair of a committee for 2 consecutive terms cannot choose to chair that committee in the first round of selections.

Let’s have a mock draft.

Submit your predictions ([email protected]) and the person with the most number of correct predictions will get lunch with Barry anywhere in Taunton.

The selection order is as follows:

Pottier (can’t choose Fire)*
McCaul (can’t choose DPW)*
Sanders (can’t choose ordinance)*
Duarte (can’t choose finance)*
Martin
Carr
Chaves
Correira
Botellio

* cannot choose to chair in the first round

First column is chair.

OK.

I’m pretty confident we have collected all the lawn signs that have not blown away into the lawn sign black hole that seems to appear annually.

If you have one or see one (signs not black holes), please send a quick message and I’ll head over and grab it.

Thanks again for your continued support.

I’m out collecting signs this weekend. Thank you for your support and your patience.

24 hours after the polls opened yesterday and the sun is just rising over the trees across the street.

Many thanks to everyone who got involved in our local election. Democracy only works when we work at it.

Thank you to everyone who worked on my campaign for re-election to what will be my 5th term on the City Council.

Thank you to the voters and the many people who encouraged and supported me.

Thanks also to those who questioned and challenged me. I’m always grateful to have different perspectives added to my own. Healthy debate makes for a healthy democracy.

I’m looking forward to continuing to work for you and our neighbors over the next two years.

Thanks again.
