Will there be a shake-up in Ferguson, MO's next city elections?

Here’s the story of the election. It’s from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, no registration is required, but you may have to answer a single survey question to be able to read it.

In a nutshell, three new council members were elected, two of whom are black. Voter turnout nearly doubled to about 30% of registered voters. No candidate was an incumbent.

It’s interesting that the voters did not vote for the protestor’s candidate.

The high turnout did not favor two candidates supported by protesters: Bob Hudgins and Lee Smith.

A larger than normal turnout indicates the voters are more interested in their government than they have been in the past. Yay! However, the majority of voters rejected candidates supported by the protestors. Does this indicate that Ferguson has grown tired of the protestor’s presence, and would like them to go away???
