This is the fourth in a series of posts concerning the 2007 elections
Democrat Tim Pape will be returning to the city council chambers come January 1st. Pape easily defeated Republican Ron Buskirk and Libertarian Bob Fuller. Percentage wise, Pape did slightly better then he did in 2003. While the margin of the win was impressive he did not appear to gain any "bump" from the top of the ticket, in the way of Tom Henry.
The predominate democratic district appears to endorse the Harrison Square project as there was little, if any voting backlash. It will be interesting to see how this support plays out over the next four years. As Henry continues to sheppard current Mayor Richard's public supported projects along.
Pape is going to have to make some decisions regarding, being involved with issues that come before council, that his law firm has worked on bequest of the Henry administration. He might find some taxpayers object enough to this that they will file formal complaint against him with the Indiana Bar Association.
