Fangman says vote was partial victory

Cincinnati Fraternal Order of Police Vice President Keith Fangman had these comments after the results were in: "Obviously, we're disappointed that Charlie Winburn did not finish in the top two. We really believed that he would have been a strong law-and-order mayor. However, we do consider this election to be a partial victory due to the fact that one of the harshest critics of the police department, Alicia Reece, will now be removed from City Council. We targeted her for defeat and we believe the voters agreed with the police that she would not have been an effective mayor.''
