    I was honored to be a member of a similar panel for the League earlier this year but that was before many of our current candidates stepped forward and before we knew for certain there would be a Charter Commission election. I’m glad the League is putting together this second program with additional panelists.

    I am just now joining the official pool of charter commission candidates, and am extremely grateful to the LWVN and to the panelists for sharing their candid and good natured insights last night. Thanks to the other candidates also – it was great to have a chance to talk.
