Spotted in the audience

On what might have otherwise been a quiet summer evening, a few of us die-hards were at a City Council meeting.

There was nothing particularly controversial on the agenda, but there was still a sizable turnout. This, at least in part, can be attributed to the growing number of city council candidates who have been frequenting council meetings.

Tonight, I spotted Democratic Commissioner for Finance Peter Martin, and Independence candidate for Commissioner of Public Works Ed Miller in the audience.

Missing was Republican Candidate for Public Safety, Richard Wirth, who has been to more meetings than any other candidate. I think it's safe to say that by the time early fall rolls around, all of the candidates will be attending the meetings, in the interests of self-education.
