Nope.  I can't trust someone who makes up "studies" to support her agenda, even if she is Pro-2A.  She's already lost my trust (not that I trust any of them much to be honest).

I'm a little on the fence.  She voted for the bump stock ban, even though she said she didn't think it would do any good, but she had spoken against the safe storage push.

I know some people who are behind her running and have met her a few times. But haven't made up my mind.

This is inside baseball stuff, but in order to bring a motion to reconsider a vote you must have voted for the ordinance and my sources say the plan is (was?) to bring it back up at some point...but there has been no recent action on this as far as I know.

Anyway that is my opinion on why the vote was unanimous.

With a liberal majority and mayor in the way, any direct attack has failed before it begins, so other methods  are used to try and move the needle to the right. Not saying it is good or bad...but until we swing the balance of power to our liking we are not going to prevail outside of a court challenge, which BTW has recently been going in our favor versus Lincoln's overreaching gun possession ordinance cebacle.

Two steps toward the Consitution and one step back is better than NO steps toward the Constitution.

Interesting synopsis.

I'm not wild about her, but she'd certainly be better than our current mayor. 

On a side note, Beutler is a dope.  He and the Governor both spoke at our company when we opened up a new office.  Beutler couldn't be bothered to figure out how to pronounce the names of our founders or to even get the name of the company correct (it's not a hard one).  He acted like he couldn't have cared less whether he was there.  Ricketts did a great job and actually gave the impression that he was glad to be part of the event.
