2008 Elections ISSUES/RESULTS:
*****************************************
.
--PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION:

On November 4, 2008, Issue 8, a Charter Amendment to elect City Council by Proportional Representation (PR), narrowly failed: NO (64,435 or 52.76%); YES (57,695 or 47.25%). PR failed by 20 votes per precinct. This shows that with a little more effort and education about PR, PR can get passed. Thanks to all those who petitioned, campaigned and VOTED FOR PR!

Issue #8 (PR) Frequently Asked Questions
"The Buffet Dinner: A Tale of Two Electoral Systems". Compares the current 9X system with the proposed PR system (Issue #8) for electing city council. An entertaining short story format is used to help make the reading interesting but still communicate the basic principles.
