JAMES MADISON QUOTE - 1822

"A popular government without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives."

City Council Race Poll Results


Place 1: total votes in poll 213, Mr. Thurmond Bell-101 votes (47.5%) ; Ms. Sandy Walker-112 votes (52.5%). Place 2: total votes in poll 202, Mr Jim Boatner-79 votes (39%); Mr. Gary Speers-123 votes (61%). ( Percentages rounded up or down to the nearest 1/2 percent.)


Winners and losers predictions based on the poll results. Place 1, Mr. Bell and Ms. Walker; although Ms. Walker leads the poll, it is my opinion there must be greater than a 5% margin to make the prediction of a winner and loser, it is not there. The Place 1 position is to close to call. Place 2, Mr. Boatner and Mr. Speers; it is my opinion that Mr. Speers will win the Place 2 race.
