Reed's Polling

From email tipster:

I just completed a phone survey on the aldermanic board president race. EMH Opinion Sampling was the polling firm. Based in Sacramento CA.

Asked opinions of Firefighters Local #73, Reed, Shrewsbury, Bosley Jr. and McMillan.

Pro Reed statements included over $1 billion in development, establishing integrated IT system for city, starting Bike St. Louis. Cons were his connections to developers and support of TIFs, and never having held citywide office. Also a really odd con statement that his phone number is listed under his wife's name.

Pro Shrewsbury statements included starting meetings on time, outlawing firearms on city property, and making it illegal to leave children alone in cars. Con statements were having an office in the county, working only part time as president of the board, and allowing an alderman to urinate in chambers.

I think the survey was for Reed because of a couple of statements indicating Shrewsbury did/didn't do something for (unnamed) political reasons, e.g. support budget increases for firemen. No references were made to Reed's political motivations.
