Susan Hogarth asks:

It has one.  It *is* one seven-member district.

Yes.  Jackie Wagstaff is not the only one of them who could win this 
seat (Ward 1).

Hey he called me a criminal first.  And at least my name-calling purports 
a reason.

Sometimes my big mouth is funny, sometimes it's embarrassing.  I feel 
fine about shooting it off this way this time.  Mayors who try to 
forcibly dictate what peaceful honest people can and can't say in 
public deserve nothing but rebuke for it.

It's an explanation of why I think an enlightened answer depends on what 
kind of office is being asked about.  For instance if I was the 
people's favorite citizen eligible for the office of County Commission 
'98 (they were never asked), I think that's tantamount to having earned 
it enough to say I held it.  

Your opinion may vary.  If so, you can even make it count in this 
race.  Presuming you become a registered Durham voter in time.
