Talking the Talk

I've completed the two traditional "Meet the Candidates" forums. The first one was sponsored by the Burlington Area Chamber of Commerce (BACC) and the second one was at the Burlington Cable Access Television (BCAT) studio. The format for both forums was an opening statement by each candidate and then Q&A. Up until the election, the BCAT forum will be aired often. This will give the voters a chance to hear directly from the candidates, not just prepared words in the newspaper. As voters, you should not feel uncomfortable picking up the phone and calling a candidate. If you read something or heard a candidate say something that was not clear, you should ask the candidate to further explain what they meant. I'm becoming a broken record but I really do want residents to contact me. I am always willing to listen.
