The Editor,
I would like to express my gratitude for the support Richmond’s local newspapers have given to the process of helping voters get to know the candidates and their thoughts on current issues. The large number of candidates has given voters a unique challenge and your assistance in the process has been most helpful.
Kudos also to all those working to assist voters to prepare to cast their ballots. The mailout to registered voters was very helpful. Advance voting was efficiently organized and area voting places clearly identified. Staff serving in all aspects were pleasant and efficient.
Thanks to all the organizations who organized meetings where voters could see and hear what candidates had to say. And thanks, also, to the candidates who gave freely of their time in various meetings to help voters get to know them.
We will have to wait to see how well those elected can work together in unity and deal with the many responsibilities they have been elected to oversee.
