BHB Debate: Question Time

One of the most interesting portions of BHB’s Debate Tuesday at St. Francis College was “Question Time.” In that segment each candidate was given the opportunity to ask each of their opponents a question. Sparks definitely flew and we suggest you watch the entire clip especially if you’re undecided. (As with the other clip below this video appears courtesy of Jonathan Barkey and Citizens Defending Libraries).

    Case of sour grapes?

    Note that Jo Anne Simon said she’s committed to building alliances, without which no legislation can be passed. Doug Biviano wants to go it alone! Bet who stands a better chance of getting something – anything – done?

    How about starting with protecting our neighborhoods… That’s job no. 1 right now and the money behind candidates predicts outcomes in this regard.
