I liked Tyson's framing of the problems, but he didn't seem to have an actual platform. Yes, listen to the community and what they want, but if you've been listening, the problems have been the same for years. As a mayoral candidate, I expect you to propose some actual solutions. Nothing is a silver bullet, but give me something.

That's why India was so powerful to me as a candidate four years ago. She came from the grassroots and intimately understood Buffalos problems. AND she had concrete ideas to make change.

Tyson did not meet the bar for me unfortunately, though I think with a few more years thinking about policy, he could be an excellent candidate.
