The 2012 ELECTIONS was my first time i ever voted. On that ballot was yours truly Wade Harper, http://wadeharperformayor.com/ . I foolishly voted for him. On his first State of the City speech newly elected Mayor Wade Harper laid out his vision of how Antioch must move forward and establish a “story” as the safest city in Northern California, with thriving businesses, easy transportation and a high-achieving school district. HE IS FULL OF SHIT! The school district of Antioch, what a bunch a under-achievers. A student needs to go to school out of Antioch, to get a an good education. He knows better not to run for re-election.
