No City Hall for Hall… again

  In almost a mirror image of the 2006 election, Diana Hall is second best for the second time in her bid for councillor of Ward 44. After losing to Ron Moeser by only 0.4 per cent four years ago, Hall lost by 1.3 per cent Monday night.           
  “I’m actually surprised. I just feel that maybe some of our people didn’t get out,” Hall told her disappointed supporters in her campaign office on Rylander Avenue after the results came in.
  Visibly upset, and a bit teary eyed, all Hall could do was accept her fate.
  “I was surprised that Ron won, but that’s the way the cookie crumbles,” Hall added.
