The other, Zak Pashak, announced his goals (if elected) today on a blog on his website. Pashak is big on transit, bike lanes, supporting small businesses, and reducing sprawl. Of note, he opened Broken City in 2003 and founded Sled Island in 2007, which I thought to be very cool.

I'm voting Pashak because I have been very unimpressed by Mar. He is a fence sitter that just waits to see which way the votes are going before deciding what side to drop down onto.
