Excellent point Eldorado, but what can be done about it?

Eldorado: NON-NEGOTIABLE – Do not accept as being by definition a true statement ANYTHING said by ANYONE running for public office, barring, perhaps, their stated name. Presumably that must be correct.

I understand that an elected official can be replaced if that person is ill, dies, etc. But, when Dr. Barber ran for office she told the electorate she wanted to serve another four year term and they elected her to it. Sounds like a contract to me.
Mr. Meyers was not elected to the position, so this sounds more than a bit like cronyism.
I think this is wrong and gives him an unfair advantage over anyone else who wants to run for the office in a year.
