ElectionEar's 2011 Ultimate Primary Candidate Questionnaire!
Get to know the candidates in their own words with City Paper's 2011 Ultimate Primary Candidate Questionnaire!
ElectionEar's 2011 Ultimate Primary Candidate Questionnaire!
It's election time, folks!
For four weeks, the ElectionEar has brought you (increasingly hard to find) coverage of this year's primary election, in which nothing less than the future of the fair city of Philadelphia is at stake.
For a list of all candidates on the ballot, go to the Board of Elections website. For extremely helpful voting information (including polling places and a list of who you'll get to vote for) visit the Committee of Seventy.
And for fun, exciting, amazing City Paper coverage, read this week's cover story by Holly Otterbein and Isaiah Thompson — and don't forget the special edition of ElectionEar, which looks at the battles behind the battles.
And now: Dozens of candiates are running for a slew of offices — Mayor, City Council, Sheriff, City Commissioner, Register of Wills, and city and state and judicial races.
But who are these candidates? And why should you vote for them?
To find out, read the candidates' responses to ElectionEar's 2011 Ultimate Primary Candidate Questionnaire below. You'll find out their thoughts on everything from the city's biggest weakness to the Philadelphia School District — and even whether or not they can spell.
Note: City Paper reached out to as many candidates as we could find email addresses for — which still left out a couple (for shame). As you can see, we didn't get as many responses as we hoped for. We will continue to update this list as questionnaires come in. Candidates can download a blank form here and email it back to us at electionear@citypaper.net.
