And, by the way, the number of people voting in these Pacifica elections, with winners getting as little as 200 or 400 votes, makes a NYC board of education election look like a monster turnout. Most listeners have neither the time nor the inclination to familiarize themselves with the candidates. WBAI is wasting airtime right now spending hours on local board elections, at the expense of coverage of the U.S. elections, the Afghan elections, the war in Iraq, etc. Most listeners don't care, and are turned off by the hours of navel-gazing.
