Welcome to the open thread for tonight's Conversation With the Mayors. There are three candidates running unopposed for mayor in Carrboro, Chapel Hill, and Hillsborough:
- Alderwoman Lydia Lavelle is running unopposed for mayor of Carrboro.
- Mayor Mark Kleinschmidt is running unopposed for reelection as mayor of Chapel Hill.
- Mayor Tom Stevens is running unopposed for reelection as mayor of Hillsborough.
You can observe the forum at http://orangepolitics.org/elections-2013/forums/mayors.
We hope you'll use this open thread to post your thoughts and reactions. Also, if you want to propose additional discussion topics, you can reach the editors during the forum via Twitter, Facebook, or the contact page. The forum moderator will have final say in question selection.
One challenger and two incumbents are all running unopposed for mayor in our three municipalities.Theymay be shoo-in's but we still want to know that they will represent us. Outgoing Carrboro Mayor Mark Chilton will serve as the moderator in a conversation with all three candidates.
Post your questions for the mayors and mayor-elect as comments on this page, on social media, or with our contact form.

Carrboro Alderperson Lydia Lavelle is scheduled to make an announcement to the public and the press tomorrow in front of Town Hall. She has long been discussed as the successor to Mayor Mark Chilton who previously announced that he would not be running for re-election after this term.
I am imgaine the reason this is so short (one hour) is that there isn't much to ask the challengers besides "who the **** do you think you are?" and then thank Mark Kleinschmidt for his service and polite patience with these bozos. Here's my favorite part of WCHL's story about this:
...challenger Kevin Wolff proposed the forum earlier this month, but hasn’t yet confirmed his attendance.
