...YOURS! You regulars know the drill: this is a special rules thread. Only write about who you are voting for (or would be if you lived in their district) and why you support them.
Other topics and criticism of candidates is welcome on other posts, see http://www.orangepolitics.org/issue/elections/2010.
Last week the upstanding Greater Chapel Hill Association of Realtors* announced they were endorsing realtor Joe Phelps for at-large County Commissioner (as well as farmer Earl McKee in district 2). How in-depth was the research behind this endorsement? They didn't even look at the other candidates.
The association said neither Jacobs nor Broun approached them about an endorsement.
“If we had been, we would have met with them and listened to their views,” Zimmerman said.
