With the primary election only six weeks away, NyackNewsAndViews kicks off its election coverage today. We’ve offered free space to each candidate to post campaign materials. As of this date, five out of the seven candidates for mayor and village board have responded. We will also be including free banner advertising for each of the candidates who have provided us content.

NyackNewsAndViews doesn’t endorse any individual candidate. But we do endorse the process and encourage everyone to read what the candidates have to say. If the candidates aren’t talking about the issues that you feel are important, post a comment or email us. We’ll forward your questions and publish their answers.

Visit our Election 2009 page for a list of candidates, their qualifications and the issues they feel are most important.
