City Council Chronicles 134: Jim Paine -- Superior, WI Mayor

Jim Paine--Superior, WI mayor--presided over a series of meetings this year in which the common council failed to select a council president after numerous votes and repeated requests for a secret ballot. He explains the dynamics behind the standoff and why the bad feelings seemed to boil over into this one decision.
