Winning an election with a quarter.

It is all in the wrist. Temple City Councilman Dan Arrighi lost his seat on the council after losing a coin flip.
Over a decade ago, there was a tie for a seat on the West Covina School Board. I tossed the coin that decided a winner until a recount changed the victor by 4 votes.
 
I always said that close elections are the worst to lose. A lot of would have and should haves enter a candidate’s thought. To lose big, no problem. You couldn’t do anything about it! See the story here.
