Charles Marshburn: Confused about the Mayoral election

Charles Marshburn writes:
If the verdict on the election doesn't come back until the next election, was the acting (current) mayor really mayor? - Charles Marshburn
Thanks, for your question, a good one - I don't think there's any question of that. Right now, he is Mayor, doing all the mayor things. But I'm speaking with only the authoritativeness of one who has undergone only six weeks of University of Tennessee law school - just got to learning interesting things about the Municipal Code of Kingsport and its ordinance against second story poolrooms, so my opinion is only an opinion. We're in the same situation as everyone else - awaiting the Judge's ruling, and finding out whether it will be appealed. Lord, what a publicity opportunity an appeal would present - better than the Scopes trial in Dayton, TN. Good for all you folks who want attention at any price, terror for me and my fellow Hobbits who are deathly afraid of living in too interesting a time. - EW
