Mary Norwood is looking to have a recount of votes in regards to the Atlanta mayoral race with Kasim Reed. Kasim Reed won the mayoral election by 700 votes.

The recount is to start as early as Wednesday.

I doubt that Norwood is a sore loser so this is very fair considering that the city of Atlanta's image is riding on the accuracy of the votes just as much as it does the right person to lead Atlanta into the change it needs -- and a playground per community isn't high on the city' s more sensible residences' priority list. Unlike the newly elected mayor, of course.



Kasim Reed won the mayoral race in Atlanta, Georgia. Supposedly, not all were too pleased about the win -- which includes Mary Norwood. A lot of people place his win squarely on the backs of African American celebrities. However, I beg to differ simply because of the support that he was getting from the likes of Roy Barnes which made Reed's win iron clad. Probable beef between Barnes and Norwood's camp? Possibly but lets hope that the new mayor make moves to clean Atlanta of its current status, i.e image -- meaning,  a city of obvious financial ruin in addition to being the headquarters for homosexual or undercover gay men, poorly constructed streets, minimum law enforcement officers in the efforts to reduce the influx of crime, few employment opportunities aside from scams and impoverished living quarters for most of its residences rather than his elementary plans for building playgrounds per community.
