Going through withdrawals
A wave of candidates turned in qualifying petitions last week, and like most waves, it receded. The "try harder next time" prize goes to some who failed to procure enough valid signatures. Others saw the lineup and got scared, or were talked out of the venture by sane relatives; either way, these formally withdrew their names before the deadline (in most state and nonpartisan local races, April 13 at noon). Then there's James Hart — knowledge of whose August 3 ballot status remains elusive to me.
I'm trying to keep up, but there's a beachful of remnants to pick through. It follows, then, that you'll send me any corrections having to do with your particular concern, or leave a comment here, and I'll do updates in the order that they're received.
The same goes for sections of the site that haven't yet been updated with the slate of candidates.
Thanks for reading, helping, and being an active participant in your government.
