...elected, but where his conservatism could. Since every candidate knows it, they all take the same stands. Naturally, the traditional pattern held up once again. Law-and-order, improved neighborhoods (without urban renewal), better schools, and closer-watched city finances are always successful platforms in Boston, but any serious candidate knows it, so there is little hope of selecting councillors by the issues.
