Population of 17,668 at last census, and this got passed with 403 votes.

I have a feeling a whole lot of the silent majority are regretting not voting today...

This is New England town government. the population elects the seven hundred or so Town Meeting members. The Town Meeting members do the voting, not the population at large. It's a voice vote mostly. Sometimes that count heads. They never identify who voted which way. When Town Meeting members run for government, they usually write up a one paragraph bio on their education and work experience. Most say they want to make government more efficient. None of them ever say what is the basis of their politics. In short you just don't know how they will vote.

Concord is full of trust fund babies and snots who know better than the commoners.
