:* Not explained is how Don Hawkins (12th) managed to secure a four-year term and E. C. Overton a 2-year term, leaving Frank James and H. G. Davis Jr out of the council. So, if these aren't the results from the election, I don't know what they are. --[[User:Dystopos|Dystopos]] ([[User talk:Dystopos|talk]]) 12:40, 26 July 2018 (PDT) |

More to say
- There's a lot more to say about this (including about the mayoral election). The City Council scrapbook from 1962-64 is chock full of information about the vote to adopt a council form of government, various controversies, profiles of candidates as they qualified, etc etc. --Dystopos 15:58, 29 April 2010 (PDT)
