[edit] Abbe Land
Non-notable local politician. Fails to meet WP:BIO, specifically "Political figures holding or who have held international, national or statewide/provincewide office, and members and former members of a national, state or provincial legislature.", as Ms. Land has held no statewide job. Additionally, "Mayor" of West Hollywood is a non-elected position, rotating through elected city council members. JRP 02:46, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

- It's not quite accurate to say that the position of mayor of West Hollywood is a "non-elected" position. The mayor is elected by the city council. By tradition, the position generally rotates among the councilmembers, but this is only by consent of the council majority, not by automatic right. This is a common form of government in smaller California cities. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Caldem (talk • contribs) 03:02, 29 November 2006. — Caldem (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
