Will You Call on Thomas to Resign?

In 2010, after the Democratic Primary, former Ward 5 Republican DC Council candidate, Tim Day & the DCGOP were the first to report irregularities from TeamThomas. Later, the Attorney General began its own investigation. Ward 1 School Board member, Patrick Mara, was the first elected official to call on Mr. Thomas to resign. Councilmember Thomas still has TeamThomas listed on the taxpayer funded DC Council website.
