mathematically challenged
At the March 22, 2011 City Council Meeting, Councilwoman Polly Low said recieved 72% of the votes of those that voted. Margaret Clark said it was only 50%. So, here are the numbers-2760 people voted in the election. Councilwoman Low recieved 1989 votes, Bill Alarcon 1477 and Alejandro Gandara 600. Do the math,72% voted for Councilwoman Lowe.
On Tuesday, March 29, there is a special Council meeting, a workshop on the 2011/12 city budget. I hope Margaret brushes up on her math skills quickly as she doesn't have much time.
Even if Councilwoman Low had recieved 100% of the votes, everyone knew, in advance of the March 22 meeting that they were going to appoint Armenta as mayor pro tem. Brown Act violation?
