Time Magazine to Cover Council Race

Time Magazine to feature contest between gay, anti-gay candidates.

Time reporter Eric Roston was in Topeka last week gathering information about the District 9 race in which two of the candidates -- Jael M. Phelps and incumbent Tiffany Muller -- are at opposing ends of the gay rights debate.

Muller and Phelps said they were told coverage of the race and related topics would be included in an upcoming issue of Time, likely the edition coming out Monday.

Well...this will be interesting. It's too bad that once again this debate is going to be perceived as a battle between extremists when in fact there are many common-sense Topekans who are opposed to special rights for homosexuals.
