A Few City Council Candidate Questions

On July 22 at the CTN studios on South Industrial Highway, the League of Women Voters of the Ann Arbor Area will host debates for candidates in the Aug. 4 Democratic primary. Ward 3 candidates Leigh Greden, LuAnne Bullington, and Stephen Kunselman will take the 7-7:45 p.m. time slot. Ward 5 candidates Mike Anglin and Scott Rosencrans will answer the League’s questions from 8-8:30 p.m.

The League welcomes submission of possible questions for candidates through Monday, July 20. [See previous Chronicle coverage of the candidate forum hosted by the Ann Arbor City Dems divided by Ward 5 and Ward 3 candidates.]

After the break, The Chronicle provides some questions we’d like to hear candidates answer. [Full Story]

For local election junkies, one of the most reliable ways to get your candidate fix is from the League of Women Voters debates, held before every local election and televised on Community Television Network. This year, The Chronicle took a behind-the-scenes look at the debates, spending Monday evening at CTN’s studios on South Industrial to see exactly what happens off camera. Though the league’s motto is “Because Democracy Isn’t A Spectator Sport,” for The Chronicle that night, it kinda was. (The complete debate schedule, including frequent rebroadcasts, is here. You can find a list of all local candidates for the November election on Washtenaw County’s website.) [Full Story]
