Do we really want him overseeing a multi-billion dollar budget?

Port Commission candidate Rob Holland of ACORN fame is running for a position that will oversee, as he says, $15 billion in revenue.

Should we trust his oversight of such a large amount when he apparently has difficulty paying back a measly $663.43 and ends up costing tax payers even more money by making the Employment Security Department file a warrant against him in King Co. Superior Court?

I'm happy for Mr. Holland that he now apparently has a job and that he's paid back the state what was owed. I'm just curious what took so long.

His campaign manager, Michael Martin, had nothing to say on the issue other than, "it's been resolved." I'm glad you think it's been resolved, Mr. Martin. The question is, will the voters think it's resolved? It's not too late to tell your side of the story. I'll gladly publish it here if you do.

1. To answer the very relevant question posed at the top of this post:

In a word, NO.

2. "I'm happy for Holland that he now apparently has a job"

What does this mean? Do we know if he really does have a job? And why did it take legal action to settle this issue for him? He should explain himself.

5. Rob won the primary by over 70,000 votes, so it looks like the voters have spoken pretty clearly.
