Will Bloomberg Get a Third Term?

While New Yorkers voted to enfore term limits on elected city officials, the New York City Council will still vote on whether to set aside the people's vote and rid New York of the term limits law.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg is doing whatever humanly possibly in an attempt to get council members to back his bid for a third term in office.

According to a Quinnipiac University poll, 87 percent of New Yorkers say the issue should be voted on by the general population. However, the vote has been called for Thursday by the Council Speaker, Christine Quinn. It seems unlikely she would call for a vote if the Mayor didn't have enough people behind him.
