Mmm…Chew on this. Bicycling continues to be a topic of conversation on the local political scene. We’re seeing more and more discussion in other places (besides LOBV) on the impact of bicyclists on local elections. If you haven’t checked it out before, be sure to keep tabs on Burnt Orange Report, which covers the entire political spectrum from a progressive slant. It has a significant amount of coverage on local elections (including this recent post on Chris Riley and the Bicycle Advisory Committee) and promises more leading into the mayoral and council elections in May.

Also, we’re going to try and keep tabs on the impact bicyclists have on campaign contributions, which comments on this post address.
