Let’s hear from the candidates
Published 12:00 am Wednesday, February 20, 2019
As a service to the community, we will publish letters of introduction from the candidates to run on the Opinion page as submitted. This allows voters an opportunity to learn more about each candidate so citizens can make an informed decision when they are at the polls.
We would like to hear from those running for School Boards and City Councils
Letters should be approximately 550 words and the candidate will need to submit a photo and the article in digital format to dawn.burleigh@orangeleader.com
