I wasn't particularly gung-ho about any of the alternates, but I'm glad that the vote splitting didn't result in another Gondek term. While a mayor may only hold one vote, they do represent the city and set the tone. Citizens seemed to either hate her, or only voted for her to thwart someone else...that's not a particularly inspiring or beneficial for anyone. For better or worse, it's good that someone else is taking the reins.
