You can get constant updates about what sorts of needless shenanigans the pointless, ministerial Erie County Legislature is up to by following the #ecleg hashtag on Twitter. Today’s session also contained an actual debate over whether the legislature should do its job and look into how the county jails are being managed given the third suicide in as many months.

In addition, we’ll have the opportunity to abolish the whole damn thing reduce the legislature from 15 to 11 members in November.

I wonder if we could write-in a reduction to zero?

UPDATE: Here are excerpts from the debate on a non-binding resolution to condemn needless and possibly preventable multiple suicides in the county jails.

So much argument for a non-binding fucking resolution.
