About time

Decatur voters today approved Sunday alcohol sales and favored adopting the council-manager form of government, with most results tabulated.

The council-manager issue remained too tight to declare it decided with some votes uncounted and all others unofficial. Support for changing the government system for the city led opposition by a thin 481-vote margin.

With almost all of Decatur's 21 precincts counted, there were 5,616 votes favoring Sunday sales and 3,360 opposed to lifting the ban.

Since I don't technically live in Decatur (just on the outskirts) I couldn't vote on this, but I like the results.
