Candidates and issues

With elections coming up shortly the citizens of Bangor are most fortunate in having a choice for the vacancies in the school committee as well as those in the city council. With the novelty of a write-in candidate on the council it is difficult to predict a winner.

Not having a choice invites malaise and voters are less likely to go to the polls to make these crucial selections this year. We have many issue choices on bond issues and we need to give thoughts to every selection, keeping in mind the extra costs involved in strung-out payments.

We should all be pleased at the opportunity to select which candidates and which issues will serve us best.
