I have watched Mr. Atherton tirades for a while now. And his comments that DFL wants the Greens out of office is plain absurd!
Personally, I would not want to vote for a specific council person in my ward and then find out 6 months later that I don't live in that ward anymore due to redistricting. Having a council person that I, DID NOT, elect. The problem being that you old council person follows the new ward boundary's while you new one doesn't, causing you to in a sense have NO respentation! I do think it was a good idea to go from 2yr terms to 4yr terms, but they could have had put the elections in years ending in 3 and 7 instead of years ending in 1 and 5. I have said my peace and now need to get some sleep!
