Right. That's why the vote needs to be gotten out: If the rules are a problem, you need to change the rules. We live in a democracy, and there's a process for that. Get people on the council who want to change the rules and the rules will change.

But that assumes that the residents that are voting for the board of supervisors are the ones that want to change the system.

Not all, just a plurality! And getting out the vote is exactly how you do that.

Absolutely. If everyone voted, there would be far more incentive to please the most number of people, not just the most invested in the status quo, or some other ideological view.
