  1. Lmao “I will not be bullied.”

    Being contested in an election isn’t “being bullied.” What a giant, victim-playing child. This is a man who has never worked a day in his life and has never once been told “no.”

    1. He has a law firm. I just wouldn’t hire him for a personal injury case due to a crash on Washington Street, even if the other driver is astronomically dumb.

      Freeman wants Indianapolis to cater to his suburban whims and needs, and matters like “Indianapolis voters chose this transit expansion” mean nothing to him because, by golly, he’s the smartest person in every room he’s every walked into. Everyone who lives downtown, or who is stuck living on one of those drag strips he wants to maintain, is a fool and not worthy of listening to. Little wonder why he bailed from the CCC as soon as Republicans lost the majority (with maps they’d drawn to their advantage, no less) and high tailed it to the Statehouse.

      Freeman would be just fine with an Indianapolis with everything closing at 5pm and everyone high tailing it back to the suburbs, just like him. He wants both a bunch of land and the convenience of being able to quickly get downtown. That he’s already got interstates and US highways to accommodate that desire is of little consequence, he wants all roads to cater to commuters first, residents last.

      Why exactly the city of Indianapolis fixed the transportation issues in his district by installing roundabouts is beyond me.

    1. Hold your breath on defeating Andre Carson. His grandmother legacy is riding on his success and the 7th district is firmly in his pocket. You want see him lose that seat in your life time. Wishful thinking and not sure what Carson has to do with this article specifically…..

    2. You won’t see the Democrat lose until 2032 because Republicans gerrymandered the districts to minimize the votes of Indianapolis area voters. They give the Democrats one district to ensure they keep four.

      Greg Pence (the guy who just used Hoosiers for a pension) has a district with both Beech Grove and Richmond in it.

      It should be illegal to draw voting district boundaries using voting registrations or past voting history. Our legislators pick their voters instead of vice versa.

    1. His failure to address issues within his own district is a huge weak point for him. If people want to defeat Freeman, drive that point home – He’s failing you and neglecting your district. Instead he’s using his position in the State to chase pet issues.
