BRACK: Updating our List of Continuing Objectives for Gwinnett County

JAN. 19, 2021  |  A big” Hurrah!” for Gwinnett County. Two of GwinnettForum’s Continuing Objectives for Gwinnett County were achieved during 2020.

Gwinnett County took action in 2020 to ban all tobacco and vaping products from Gwinnett Parks. The outright ban will not only clean up our multi-layered park system, but it makes them healthier at the same time.

BRACK: Forum urges nomination of these people in June primaries

MAY9, 2020  |  Today we present the result of spending time and getting to know 91 candidates in the upcoming primary and non-partisan elections. We are proud to endorse this list of candidates.

We do not endorse in any races where we have not spoken personally to the candidate.  We have not talked with unopposed primary candidates. If these candidates have opposition in the General Election, we will invite them to talk with us before November. In a few races, we do not find candidates worthy of election, and will not endorse in that race.

BRACK: How to find details about candidates in coming election

BRACK: How to find details about candidates in coming election

By Elliott Brack | Boy! What a job awaits Gwinnett voters in the upcoming primary election! There are 135 candidates from Gwinnett seeking your support. Making sense of who to support out of this onslaught of candidates may be the toughest job ever in an election for Gwinnett.

In what is the most essential election of a democracy, the voting itself, it is becoming harder and harder to find enough information to determine which candidate to support. One reason is that there is less and less media presence allowing candidates to present their information and stances.

By Elliott Brack  | The 2020 primary in Gwinnett opened the floodgates for candidates, as there are 135 people on the Gwinnett ballot seeking to get elected and begin serving January 1, 2021.  However, only 17 political candidates are moving to the General Election without an opponent, including four Superior Court and four State Court candidates, plus the magistrate judge.
