If the City Council makes an apology for the Civil Voting Rights Lawsuit, it should be short and to the point, perhaps "The City Council of Santa Clara apologizes to citizens of Santa Clara for not acting faster to accept the State Court rulings. Going forward the Council will work diligently to ensure all citizens in the City are properly and well represented." Anything else will reek of politics, make citizens resentful and backfire more loudly and promply than a sideshow roadster.
