[RP TownTalk] raise failed for mayor/council

[JayRite at aol.com]

So the legislation did not pass, despite the fact that there were 3 votes  
yes, and zero votes no? 
3 to 0 means victory to me. Right? Abstain means no vote at all, so that  
means 3-0. 3-0 should not equal a loss. But rules are rules.
Gotta' love local politics! Sheesh!
