The Bellevue Hill Improvement Association hosts a forum for the newly slimmed down field of candidates for at-large city-council seats at 7 p.m. on Monday at St. George Orthodox Church Hall, 55 Emmonsdale Rd. in West Roxbury.

In yesterday's preliminary election, voters selected eight candidates to face off for four at-large seats in the Nov. 5 final election: Michelle Wu , Michael Flaherty, Annissa Essaibi-George, Alejandra St. Guillen, Julia Mejia, Althea Garrison, Erin Murphy and David Halbert.

West Roxbury political power at a low

No elected residents in the city government, right? No city-wide, O'Malley lives in JP, etc...

We're probably a year two away from the Keogh voters starting a movement to secede from Boston.

Well ...

If St. Guillen gets elected, West Roxbury will have somebody on the council, because she lives there (and the council will have its third BLS graduate), although I suspect that's not what you mean.

Then I am incorrect.

I didn't think she was from WR, my bad!

I was not making some kind of oblique lace curtain Irish comment, just a straight geography remark.

My apologies

Guess I was too quick to reach for the crankiness.

O’Malley
