The Daily Dirt February 12, 2018: habemus presidentum

Well the USSF Presidential election was held on Saturday. The new president is Carlos Cordeiro, the current Vice President of an organization that failed to reach the world cup and is otherwise filled with problems. I have something more fulsome to go into this over on StarsandStripesFC.com later today, but he deserves a chance to implement his plan and should be judged on the results of his tenure - not who he is as a person or who he isn’t compared to other candidates.

The day was filled with intrigue and machinations as after two rounds it looked like a stalemate of sorts was developing with Kathy Carter and Carlos Cordeiro each taking about 35% of the vote, Kyle Martino and Eric Wynalda taking a bit over 10% each, and the other candidates splitting the remaining votes.
