Cox position is not a new one Cal, I'm surprised at you. Everyone who follows Kathy Cox's politics knows that she has always required not demanded that local governing bodies thoroughly discuss and unanimously support legislation that they propose. This isn't a new position for Kathy. She knows that local legislation that doesn't have 100 percent support from the local governing body lacks the impetus necessary for success in the legislature. Anti-majoritarianism? I don't think so. She teaches our children how and why majority rule works, and I know very few people who have a greater love for that system than Kathy. But a 4-1 vote by the Council is not a majority vote by the citizens of Peachtree City. Conservatives are, by nature, cautious. I voted for Kathy because she gives careful, thoughtful consideration to what she does. She hasn't changed. This isn't a campaign ploy. It's being a responsible legislator. It's what she does.
