After that, the mayor's representative, Barbara James eventually showed up with a letter from the mayor dated this evening (May 22), in which the latter reported that, because of illness, she was "light-headed" and decided not to participate. The letter also insinuated that I had deliberately not shown up at another forum hosted by the NAACP this past Sunday. My friends,nothing could be further from the truth. The mayor's husband, Peter Briggs, who was running that forum, knew full well that I had a conflict on that date, as I had alerted him to it in an email dated May 10, well over a week in advance. He never contacted me again, not even to reschedule. Below is a copy of my response, followed by the original invitation. so that you can see the truth. I am ready to discuss the serious issues facing our community at any time. Anyone asking for your vote should at least show up.

I still do not understand why people will vote for her (other than her husband, mother, and a few friends).
I am also suspicious that Sharon knew well in advance that she was not coming as I did not see many of her supporters at the event.
Unprofessional, rude, ill mannered, and typical of this mayor. It is how she runs the city.
Plainfield deserves better - I keep wondering why some Plainfielders settle for hamburger when they can have filet.
