New Lowell Election Commissioner?

For John, BLUF:  What will this do to (1) the Election Commission and (2) the Lowell Blogosphere?

---

Over at the [Lowell] Sun, and at the Left in Lowell and Dick Howe blogs, is news that Blogger Gerry Nutter is to be nominated to the Election Commission, subject to the approval of the Lowell City Council.  The article in the newspaper, by Reporter Lyle Moran (lmoran@lowellsun.com) (a person from down County), suggests that a couple of City Councillors have already announced they will vote nay.  Gerry Nutter wields a sharp quill, but there is no doubt he loves Lowell and is an informed and involved Resident.
