Nasheed on the move in the 60th

By Antonio D. French

Filed Monday, January 30 at 4:00 AM

The primary election for state representative in the 60th district is still several months away, but candidate Jamilah Nasheed is wasting no time giving people things to talk about (See this, this, and this). Her campaign reached out and touched voters twice this weekend.

Several residents of the 60th district received in the mail a "community survey" from Citizens for Jamilah Nasheed, which asks for opinions relating to neighborhood issues, parks, and satisfaction with the level of service provided by the current state rep, Amber Boykins (though she is not mentioned by name). Voters were also asked to rate six concerns using numbers 1 through 5, with 1 being the biggest area of concern and 5 being the least. (No word yet on what to do with the 6th.)

Then on Sunday voters in the 60th, including this reporter, received a phone call from the campaign. Click here to listen.

Nasheed's opponents, former State Rep. Robert Bartlett and Shaun Simms, husband to Amber Boykins, have been quiet so far. But the race can be expected to heat up closer to summer.
