The architect of the referendum crisis, Gary Chartrand’s run of the mill civic engagement

There is no doubt that Gary Chartrand, who collects politicians like I used to collect baseball card is behind the referendum fight in Jacksonville. He has both an irrational hatred of public schools and love of charters.

The Ponte Vedra millionaire was on First Coast Connect a few weeks back where she asked him if he was using his out sized influence to dictate what was happening and he replied that he was engaging in just run of the mill civic engagement.

He is either dumb or he thinks we are.

Does the normal run of the mill citizen give over 50 k to the mayor or donate from four different accounts, or give to 9 different current city council members, because that’s what Chartrand has done

Friends, does any of this seem like run of the mill civic engagement?
