The Race is on in the University District

Question:  why is it that Aaron Jackson who has a Thatcher Avenue address, does not realize that his district is now the Masten District and not the University District?  He refuses to accept the fact that he was redistricted when the new Council lines were drawn.  Thatcher Avenue was formally in the University District; it is now in the Masten District.  This has been his home for years. If it's a Thatcher Avenue address, he will automatically be disqualified.

His claim to fame was when he showed up to a meeting held by members of the black community who "called out" Margaret Sullivan from the Buffalo News for releasing criminal information on some of the individuals who were killed in the City Grill shooting downtown.  He was very vocal at the meeting and has since declared himself a community activity.
