 In 2010 the same lag time will take place and democracy won't fall then
anymore than it did in 1990.   ... .    PLEASE, stop this train wreck
while you can.  No good will come from this.    


[TB]  Wrong again.  Since council members have 4 year terms there will
be an election in 2113.

Train wreck?  I'm not sure I'm seeing who is hurt here.

If cost of an election is the issue here, why aren't we holding council
elections in even number years instead of odd years when nothing else is
on the ballot.  That, btw, is one of the reasons that the school board
changed their terms, another is turnout is much higher.
