The Wall Street Journal has this article about the movement to change New York city elections from partisan elections, to non-partisan elections. Thanks to Rick Hasen for the link. The article’s title is not a good title, but the article itself is worth reading.
P.R. in ALL legislative bodies — especially partisan — to show the party hack groups.
ALL of govt is partisan — MORE govt or LESS govt.
“Non-partisan elections” is just a scheme to make elected officials less accountable to the electorate.
