CANDIDATE FORUM

Seventeen candidates running for ten positions met fifty residents at Friday's Candidate Forum
Present were mayoral candidates, Rodney Wiltshire, Ernest Everett, Patrick Madden, Jim Gordon and Jack Cox, Jr.,  City Council At-Large candidates present included Andrea Daley, David Martin, Anasha Cummings, Cary Dresher, and Peggy Kownack. Other candidates included Jessica Ashley in District 1, Anastasia Robertson in District 2, Bob Doherty, Barbara Higbee and Collin Fox Thomas in District 4, David Bissember in District 5 and Corey Jenkins in District 6.

Said one potential voter: “They go around and stick stuff in your door, but it was good to get a chance to hear them.” Unfortunately the  resident failed to elaborate on the term stuff, leaving us to wonder if she meant campaign literature or rotten fruit, vegetables, used Kleenex, body parts or other miscellaneous items.

 
 
 
The following is a partial list of the questions the candidates faced.
 
1) Should I fake orgasm?
 
2) If  a train leaves Penn Station travelling west at  90 miles an hour  and another train leaves Union Station travelling east at 87 miles an hour, why do you suck?
 
3) What was the real nature of Frodo and Sam's relationship?
 
4) Only three root words in the English language begin with dw- use them all in one sentence. 
 
5) Why is '70's porn lit so poorly? 
 
This could be one of the most exciting elections ever. Why is it so boring?

Did the GOP just not bother to show? WTF? Just Gordon? They're getting trounced.

Congrats to a fellow language dweeb for using the three "dw" words in the same sentence.
