Being a Good Public Servant Means Answering the Tough Questions

Being a Good Public Servant Means Answering the Tough Questions

Every leader has to answer tough questions. Every good office holder needs to answer tough questions asked by the voters and city officials. As a candidate to represent Ward 2 on the Blue Ash City Council, I’ve gotten a chance to answer some tough questions.

Recently the League of Women Voters and the Cincinnati Enquirer sent all the candidates for local offices a series of questions. Some were easy (what’s your name). Some were very hard (in 250 characters or less, what qualifies you for the office you seek). I encourage you to read the answers of both candidates before you make your choice. Of course, on each of the sites, you will find answers about all the offices you will find on your ballot November 2.

It’s UNofficial!

I got a phone call from the Hamilton County Board of Elections and it’s UNofficial! The staff has reviewed my nomination petitions. Big thanks to everyone who signed because all the endorsements were confirmed. Because the filing deadline isn’t until August, the board won’t act on any petitions until then. I guess that means I’m no more a candidate than I was last week but it sure feels like I am!
