Term limits … NOT!
Wednesday, June 16th, 2010
Naperville, Illinois is considering term limits for their city officials.
“One of the big pros [of term limits] is getting fresh blood in,†… “One of the big cons is losing institutional knowledge.â€
I’ve always been opposed to term limits. I believe term limits are already in place and they are called elections.
When only 1/3 of local elections are opposed why would we want to prohibit good incumbents from serving again?
Local activists who push for this type of legislation would be better off if they spent their time recruiting new candidates to run against the bad incumbents and let the good incumbents remain.
