Thanks for the little political lesson. Guess you haven't figured it out yet. Lipski makes a deal with the candidate he believes will win in Nov, thus same candidate runs and wins in May. Lipski pulls votes away from one or two candidate who are seen as strong in Ward C, thus not giving the candidate in the lead in Ward C as strong a base and not over the top. Look at the numbers from 2001, DeGise and Cunningham were nip and tuck in most wards until it got to Ward F where Cunningham blew it open. (no there no McGreevey reference here :)-). Some campaign may think that's a similar strategy, to siphion off enough votes. It's not about Lipski winning, it's a diversion. Lipski aka "The Worm", helps the candidate he went to bat for, gets on their May ticket, possibly if the ticket wins control Council President, maybe a better job for his wife. Do you see now Mr Clueless?
