Initially, this index will focus on candidates in the May 6 primary in Mecklenburg. As content is added to the site from Forum presentations, we will add pictures of the candidates whose presentations we videotaped, and links to where you may review their statements.
At the bottom of this page are references to candidates in the November general election. After May 6, we’ll combine them with the primary winners.
