But...

LH he followed the rules of order. Yes Maria's political life was saved but the governor followed the established law. If he did not, it would have been pointed out to him and he would've looked like a fool and STILL would have had to enforce the same rule of order. We can of course discuss and argue the rest of the meeting but the Governor's role is strengthened by the book that governs the Island Council. The Alliance knew about the article in question, but interpreted it wrong. The governor was clear on this. Was the issue a conflict of interest? Absolutely? The Alliance went for the kill, and politically got outfoxed again. Is it good for our democracy? Political trickery never is. But blaming the governor, in my humble opinion, is a stretch.
