Where are they?

Brownlee and McGuinness need to be at the candidate forums.

Messrs. Brownlee and McGuinness both filled out papers for run for City Council.  To the best of knowledge these citizens for all practical purposes have stayed away from almost all of the events so far.  I was at the Save the Music Festival from 8:30 till 5 and did not see either of them.  Our booth was next to Wozniak and Warden and just down the aisle from Braunstein, Reed and Cook.  The biggest crowd was around Braunstein and his  big dog.  Just about everyone loves a big, friendly dog. Both Coralin and Lieberman should take note for their campaigns in 2013.But Brownlee and McGuinness missed a chance to meet lots of people.  I hope they come to the candidate forums on the 6th in the Sr Center and the 12th in the Library.  Both begin at 6:30 PM and go to 8:30 to 9:00 PM.  They could be super-stars but we will never know unless the surface.I happen to be on  both  committees so get to see the questions to be asked.  WOW! There are some dandies.  If you have questions that you want to be sure are asked, post them here and I will see to it they will be put in the pool for the moderators. Time permitting the moderators will try to ask all of them. If all 7 candidates appear, I am sure we will get more than an ear-full. Be there and judge for your self who will get your vote.  Give them all a chance and don't vote until after the 12th  Forum....you should plan to go to both because the questions will be different.
