alan, Staggering city and county council elections is what we do here in #BellinghamWA and #WhatcomCounty, and people claim to like it because of more institutional memory and continuity. But really, how many incumbents get booted anyway? I find that a dumb argument to be worried that the whole council might be replaced in a single year.
Much better to elect the whole council at the same time, but do it via a #ProportionalRepresentation system like #SingleTransferableVote.
