I'm not saying that at all. I am not equating Detroiters to a stopped clock being right twice a day. I'm saying that for the most part as far as the mayors office they get it right. We can debate the merits of the different officeholders but in the last 30+ years I can only think of 12 were we could have made a better choice.
For the other races I am a little more critical but I understand why. For many of these races you have tons of candidates running and its tough to sort thru all that and Detroit voters sometimes take ill advised shortcuts [[name recognition) and many times it comes back to bite us.
I don't look at this as electorial issue as much as I see it as a institutional governance issue.
