If he just neglected to vote for himself can you imagine the ‘D’Oh!’ that came out of him?

I hope they got the representative that they didn’t vote for.

“Selle, 42, said he simply forgot that Tuesday was election day, and apparently so did Ward 3’s other 34 registered voters.
Selle, a professional musician, was recently appointed to fill a council vacancy and had been seeking a full term.

He said he saw other residents at the school where the voting was held, “but it never occurred to me that’s what they were there for.”

Shoot, I was going to try to say something funny, but really, what can you add to the reality of this?

The last line is classic:

Turnout was better in Ward 2, where two people voted.

If there had been a declared opponent, would he and the opponent have been declared “tied”, necessitating a selection by lot?

Nifty way to get around term limits (supposing the town had them), seeing that he wasn't actually elected. :-)

But if you asked them to vote on the new flavor of Doritos, you’d get 100% turnout.

Isn’t this the town that beat a bully to death a few years back?
