As those who follow this show know, we offer a lot of commentary. However, for the purposes of simply letting voters hear from the candidates, this post contains just the General Election interviews we’ve done with candidates, except for our presentation of the conflict of interest violations made by aldermen Ron Ludwig of Ward 2, Barbara Shaw of Ward 9 and Normand Gamache of Ward 11. There are twenty six interviews in total, presented chronologically.
Please know that every candidate for office was invited to appear on the show. Many did not respond, despite their challengers requested to appear simultaneously. Mayoral candidate Joyce Craig refused several invitations to be a guest on the show.
