One thought on “Are you ready to vote?”
  1. On October 29, 2013, the City of Santa Ana received a voter initiative petition to amend the City’s Charter to change elections of councilmembers from At-Large to within Wards

    I think the elimination of the voter’s right to vote on their city council members, all of them, is a mistake.

    The idea that braking down the voters to small districts, wards, or groups to make it easier for losers to win a seat is erroneous. The losers will still lose and it will make it easier for special interest to buy wards on the cheap.
