"Should I vote for the measure that's more likely to result in candidates I don't like winning?"
This seems like a pretty straightforward "no" to me.
That's not exactly what I was getting at though. By "the wrong people" I'm talking about people that don't accurately represent an area.
If there are a lot of people from an area voting, then it's more difficult for bad actors to win elections. This is why I fully support term limits for higher levels of government. Until I had these conversations, I was mostly on the fence about it for local elections.
At the end of the day, if few people from an area vote in an election (as is typical for most local elections), then it's easier for bad actors to win.
