Green allegation detailed

Here is a start, you could also search for more info on Matthew Green and Jeanette Hawkins, those are the main two involved.

You could also contact Matthew Green directly through http://www.matthewgreen.org/ http://matthewgreen.org/contact

...he's a great guy and I'm certain he'd love to answer any questions you may have.

Matthew was accused of all kinds of awful things following the incidents to which you referred, including misogyny.  Honestly I don't think those events had anything to do with Matthew being misogynistic; Matthew was purely guilty of being thin skinned.  Jeanette had been needling him and insulting him; the final straw was when she made a nasty comment about his education. 

Matthew, if you talk to him, will very likely say that he apologized, that he recognizes how very inappropriate his behavior was, and that he's learned from his mistake.  This is all true.  What he probably won't tell you is that Jeanette's behavior was also extraordinarily inappropriate, and that she was never called to the carpet for it as he was.

The Canaanite's Call

I ran a google yesterday, after reading the LTE on Green.  Is Jeanette Hawkins the same person that left the council to go to work for Edward Jones and is now Tri Vo's assistant?

to ask him about his record in office!  Matthew accomplished some pretty great stuff.  He blew the whistle when the council was having secret meetings, and made a big push for open government.  He worked on getting a parks and sidewalks measure passed.  He led the council's successfull struggle against Eli Moreno, the Forest Glen slumlord who's negligence was seriously harming tenants. And he helped stop the conference center project, the funding for which has been redirected to the Hands On Childrens Museum. 

Matthew could tell you quite a bit more about what he's worked on, and what he plans to work on. 

The Canaanite's Call

I have to laugh a bit at someone complaining that there was "profanity" used between adults.  If that is the most that a person can complain about, in reference to another, it's almost humorous.

I don't know Green and could care less about City Council races in Olympia, but it's obvious that Green got jobbed.

Thank you for the comments!. I plan on contacting not only Matthew, but some of current and previous Council members that both endorse him and served on the Council with him during the events.

Profanity between adults is fine by me, I'm from Jersey and definately have honed my skills in talking like a gangster. However, I do expect Council members and other city/state/federal representatives to conduct themselves in a manner that is not devisive or isolating to any member of the community, whether one is interesting in their work or not.
