Thank you @adambonin

[Adam Bonin (@adambonin.bsky.social) @adambonin]

Okay, I'm calling it given the margin in the 8th Council: @JimEnglerPHL wins the 2023 Philadelphia Primary Predictions Pool, followed by @johnbday @dakaner.
Here's the Top 41, sorted by tiebreaker. If you're not in these charts, you had fewer points than this (or didn't enter.)

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

Those strategies are in stark contrast to the progress we've made under @PhillyMayor that is highlighted in the story the Governor is holding up. https://t.co/WcAACiQiJm

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

Hey @sbcmw I hope you asked them if she plans to manage the pension plan like the three Mayors who've endorsed her. Rendell and his Pension Bond gamble; Street and the bare minimum; Nutter and his PGW gambit. https://t.co/U2KViabzup

[Sean Walsh @sbcmw]

Ed Rendell announced his endorsement of Rebecca Rhynhart in the mayor’s race earlier. He held up a @PhillyInquirer article about the city’s pension fund and said she’s the best candidate to tackle its unfunded liability

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

We also made huge improvements to our pension fund by agreeing to pay more than legally mandated in exchange for a new hybrid pension plan with our unions. This took the fund from 40% to 60% funded and accounts for 15% of the total City budget. https://t.co/WcAACiQiJm

TREA. TURNER.

@jayamccalla1 No one “sends” me anywhere, I’m a full grown adult. I simply stated a fact related to the Councilmember’s voting record. People can interpret it however they like.

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

@aaronbauman @PhillyMayor I don’t work there anymore, Aaron, but from the looks of this, pretty well!! https://t.co/OcFzkzpIIy

[Raymond Smeriglio @RaySmergPHL]

THIS. IS. HUGE.

@PhillyMayor announced $47.5M in @PhiladelphiaGov FY24 budget to #RebuildPHL- doubling down on our promise to deliver 72 improved parks, rec centers & libraries throughout Philadelphia!

Let’s keep the good work going.

#RebuildPHL

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

Councilmember Domb voted for all seven budgets presented by @PhillyMayor while he was on City Council.

[Allan Domb @VoteDomb]

Mayor Kenney’s increased our budget over eight years, wasting millions of dollars on programs with no accountability measures and little to show for it.

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

@g_donnelly4 Just trying to share some facts 😊

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

@coynewriter @cobbscreekfnd Some good news on this project not through the eyes of @PhillyInquirer https://t.co/M7WmzwcK1J

Bryce Harper, but Moneyball

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

Thank you @PhillyMayor for the opportunity to work by your side in service to our city. And thank you to my colleagues, too numerous to name here, who have helped me become a better person all while trying to make Philadelphia a better place.

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

Surreal to be leaving @PhiladelphiaGov after nearly 7 years. I’m proud of what we accomplished, and prouder still to hand the keys to my friend @christpasta.

[Bloomberg CityLab @CityLab]

The sluggish recovery in US state and city employment has left payrolls hundreds of thousands of positions below pre-pandemic levels, a deficit that may take years to plug as the private sector lures away workers https://t.co/DcxKFOYnUM

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

Life-changing program brought to you by @PhillyMayor and @CCPedu. https://t.co/55z4pvDhOp

[Jim Engler @JimEnglerPHL]

Tremendous work by the @phlsoccer2026 committee along with all partners to get this bid over the finish line. Special congratulations to the many @PhiladelphiaGov team members involved, especially @SheilaShowPHL @jazellejones @christpasta @BrianClintonPHL and alum @vaughnross!

[FIFA World Cup 26 Philadelphia™ @FWC26Philly]

World-class city. World-class fans. Philadelphia’s bid for #FIFAWorldCup 2026 is WON!

[Mayor Cherelle L. Parker @PhillyMayor]

Proud to join @PhilaOEM today for their Change of Command Ceremony recognizing the appointment of Dominick Mireles as the new director. Dominick brings an enthusiasm for the safety of residents and businesses in our city along with a keen ability to forge critical partnerships.

[MetroPhilly @MetroPhilly]

City leaders recently announced a plethora of summer programming, including thousands of summer camp opportunities, PlayStreets, summer jobs, and reading and learning programs. https://t.co/p3SwH0u4ih
