Candidate Survey Follow Up... and Pulling Teeth
We're busy this week calling candidates to follow-up on the candidate survey that we sent to people running in the 6 statewide races this year.
We'll print their answers in our Voter Guide that will go out to 18,000 KFTC members and friends and will post them as well on www.KentuckyElection.org and call those same 18,000 people to remind them to vote, so it's very worth it to the candidates to respond.
Still, to be honest, it's like pulling teeth.
Most candidates are shy about letting people know where they stand on issues and it's hard to get them to respond.
Our strength is in our members like YOU, though, so we're sending you the list of which candidates have responded so far and which haven't. If you know some of these candidates or run into them this week, please thank the ones who have already responded and firmly remind the ones that haven't yet that they should really complete their survey and get it back to us by the end of the day on Monday. It's just good Democracy.
