However, anyone can and may also co-sponsor with him." She gives Fergal a head nod, "and I mean if the populace didn't want us running things then they would not have voted us to our positions in the first place. Therefore we are helping the populace by only presenting them with candidates that know and will work with this body, along with the fact that we know how to run a city, obviously." She sits back down and waits for their responses.
