So that's 15 of 17 candidates for office.

The interviews with City Council candidates are running right around an hour. I would encourage everyone to watch all of them as well as the mayoral interviews because all the candidates (so far) have had very interesting and diverse viewpoints on the same issues and have offered a lot of information to the general discourse.


We are all really pleased with how it's been going so far.


I'm looking forward to the upcoming interviews - all 11 of them - next week. Yikes.


Again, the interviews will run on cable channel 9 throughout the month of October - I was kidding about the continuous loop - and thankfully the candidates have the spotlight because I have annoying apple cheeks on TV.


Nobody offered to do my makeup. Drats.
