We wouldn't be in this jam, if the council would not have went
to 4 year terms.

With respect to your point about the
decade being more than half over before the new ward lines take
effect:
If a lawsuit is filed for new elections in 2003 based on a
failure of the wards in the past election to provide equal representation on
the grounds of one person, one vote, I believe it will be successful,
given the massive changes in a number of wards, for example the Third, Eighth,
Sixth, Ninth and First wards, among others.
Anyone up to join me in
filing such a suit?
