Editor:
I learned something about new math at Delta council's meeting on Dec. 17.
When staff reported the majority of communications received were against any Southlands proposal, it was revealed the calculations included multiple submissions by individuals, which is the statistical equivalent of ballot box stuffing.
One-citizen-one-vote is still the definition of democracy and it's important for council to know how many individuals expressed their opinion for or against, not just the totals in each type of communication.
What a terrific project a new spreadsheet and accurate tally of communications would make for a math class in South Delta.
Is anyone up to the challenge? Let's get the real facts.
