Candidates Introduce Themselves

Candidates Introduce Themselves

During the period prior to the November 7 election, the West Essex Tribune will make space available to both of the Board of Education candidates, at no cost, in order for them to present their views to the public. It is our hope that this will allow the voters to make a direct comparison which will assist them in making an informed voting decision. The Tribune will not, however, accept “Letters to the Editor” from the candidates during that portion of the campaign. Nor will the Tribune publish letters of endorsement or opposition for any candidate, though we may choose to publish, in the issues before the election, excerpts from letters of endorsement received during the campaign. 09/21/2023 04:00 AM
