If you do, you can help GwinnettForum, and even moreso, you can be of major assistance to the candidate.   This time of year, we are spending 30 minutes with as many candidates as we can. That’s to evaluate their candidacy and determine which candidates GwinnettForum will endorse in the primary and general election.

BRACK: How Forum will help readers learn about candidates

By Elliott Brack  | With the Georgia primary now scheduled to be held on June 19, it gives GwinnettForum a little more time to make contact with candidates who have opposition in the Georgia primary. Actually, we’ve made pretty good progress this year, having talked to 73 candidates so far, in order to get to know them.

10/16: GwinnettForum’s 2018 endorsement issue

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | After nearly a full year of people campaigning for election in 2018, the end is near. On November 6, Georgians will vote in the General Election, picking the people to lead our nation in Congress, our state government and our local governments for the short-term future.

Despite all the rhetoric and commercials about the election, we can only hope that our voters will see through the smokescreens and innuendos, and decide for themselves which of the many candidates to support.

GwinnettForum again this year has interviewed state and local candidates—-88 so far—to learn about them so it can select the candidates most worthy of the Gwinnett voter’s choice. What follows is our endorsement of the candidates we think will best serve our area in the coming years.  It was a delight to see so many good candidates offer for office.
