Blind Item


Rumor has it - a certain co-chair of Cincinnatians for Progress proposed to his gf at an iconic Cincinnati site this past weekend! Was it on the streetcar line, Maly? Er...I mean MAYBE?

Holiday Get Together and Thank You Celebration

Dear Cincinnatian for Progress,

It seems like only yesterday that we were all working hard to defeat Issue 9. But it's been a whole month!


Well, we're glad that's over. Now we can get together and enjoy each others' company outside the stress of the campaign.

We'd like to invite Cincinnatians for Progess supporters to a Holiday Get-Together on Wednesday, December 9th, 5:30 PM until 7:30 PM.

We'll be celebrating our win and the season at City Cellars, 908 Race Street, Downtown.


Many of you will remember City Cellars as the place where the discussion of offering transportation choices to Cincinnatians really started to take off with presentations on the Cincinnati Streetcar.

There is no charge for this event, but space is limited. So if you'd like to join us, please RSVP here as soon as possible.

You can buy glasses of wine or beer for $4.00. Or better yet, buy a bottle to share with others.

Hope to see you there.

Special Thank You from Cincinnatians for Progress Co-Chairs

Thank You.

All along, we have said that this campaign was about more than a streetcar or passenger rail or good governance-it was about what kind of city Cincinnati wants to be. Thanks to you, Cincinnati sent a loud and clear message that Cincinnati stands for Progress.

We demand good governance.
We embrace transportation options and want passenger rail here in Cincinnati.
We want to compete for economic growth and talent and jobs.

You helped us come from 9 points down in a March poll to a resounding 12 point win on Election night.

You helped us build one of the broadest coalitions in Cincinnati history: with a majority of R's, D's, C's and I's; with the League of Women Voters and Cincinnatus; with labor; with the African American Chamber, the Hispanic Chamber, the OTR Chamber, and the Cincy USA Regional Chamber; with westsiders and eastsiders, etc. etc. You know the coalition, because you helped link us together.

Please join us in thanking our core committee. These are the people who spent every Monday night since February creating CFP and making it successful. You didn't see them out front often, but they were here every week making sure Issue 9 was defeated. Next time you see them, say thanks to:

Jason Baron
Jeff Cramerding
Colin Groth
Jodi McIntosh
Don Mooney
John Schneider
Anne Sesler
Andrew Simon
Abbey Steinman
Kari Toll
Brad Thomas
Jonathon Vogt
Margy Waller

A special thanks to Mayor Mark Mallory, Jim Tarbell, Roxanne Qualls, Chris Bortz, Andrew Bench, Chris Moran, Fred Craig, Judi Craig, Dacia Snider, Tracy Schwetschenau, Judge Mark Painter, Bill Burwinkle, Denise Driehaus, Dick Finan, Stan Aronoff, Jim and Joanne Maly, Lisa and Tim Maly, Amber Sprengard, Rachel Lapps, Libby Korosec, Joe Metz and Get Sick Productions.

This week, we celebrate. Next week, Cincinnatians for Progress will get back to work. Look for an announcement in the coming weeks about how Cincinnatians for Progress is going to need you to keep the new energy and momentum we've generated working toward Progress in Cincinnati.

We Love Cincinnati,

Bobby Maly, Co-Chair
Rob Richardson, Co-Chair
Joe Sprengard, Co-Chair
