This time around, however, a new ingredient has been added to the pot of Cambridge politics: whether it will much change the flavor or the outcome remains to be seen. The new ingredient is rent control, which the council defeated this summer by a five to four vote while two hundred rent control backers sat in the chambers and fumed. Once outside the rent control advocates vowed to venge themselves in November on the "faithless five" -their term for the five councilors who voted against the rent control bill...
Whether the rent control advocates play the rules of the PR system will determine in large measure how much impact they have on the election results. If they cast "bullets" (voting only for a first choice candidates, without listing other choices), their impact will end once their first choice candidates are eliminated as most probably will...
...case is much the same with most of the other six incumbents in the race. Though their anti-rent control position may hurt them a little, Walter J. Sullivan (Ind.) and Edward A.

Vellucci will sweep up East Cambridge "number ones," add a few votes from Sullivan's surplus, get some more when weaker Italian and Portuguese candidates are eliminated, and make it into the winner's circle after...

For a while it seemed Procaccino had the election wrapped up, if mostly because so many New Yorkers look so much like him and tend, therefore, to think him attractive. But even some Procaccino look-alikes (not all of whom are Italian, not by a long shot) have been turned off by Mario's latest foibles-like his badly overplayed academic history, capped by his presidency of an enterprise called Verazzano...
