Footer, Not By A Shoo-In

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Election Results:
Both sides of the Lake, non-campaign candidates barely missed winning the race.

East Side
Footer-98
Surma-90

Although she told the Star she "no longer wanted to be considered" there were enough FOB (Friends of Botyl) and Stevenson associates that wanted her considered.  In any event, Botbyl lost his automatic tie breaker with the retirement of Stevenson and the election of Footer.  Let's hope the Mayor is paying attention.

West Side
Richmond 126
Berglund 112

Another head scratcher as neither waged an active campaign, one would think the incumbent wins in a landslide...not so.  Matter of fact a handful of Richmond voters vote the other way and he would be out.  I count Richmond as still in the FOB camp...but it is apparent at recent BOA meetings, Mr Richmond might be growing tired of Botbyl's antics.  We shall see.
