This is what I like to see. A Hackensack landowner's dispute with a local property board over a stinky eminent-domain gambit not only yielded a courtroom decision in favor of the landowner, but won't be going on to further expensive appeals, because the local community rose up and voted out the entire city council to the last man.
The surest way to win a lawsuit that never should have been brought in the first place is to induce a change of control in the other side's governance.
Voters should revolt more often. We really don't have to put up with this.
It'll be interesting to see who the Citizens for Change's cronies are, or become.
