It’s a Sign of the Times.

Not a day after news of the Stronger Foundations big construction union PAC is revealed backing most of Mayor Ravi Bhalla’s council slate, a debate held yesterday shows an empty podium for his sixth ward candidate, Cristin Cricco-Powell.

Hey, she had a nice place on the podium there though. Looking good!

City Council President Jen Giattino smiles on the left with fellow sixth ward council candidate Frank Rosner at yesterday’s sixth ward debate. The middle podium was for Ravi Bhalla’s no-show Stronger Foundations big construction candidate: Cristin Cricco-Powell.
