How well do you know the dozen candidates running for the

Albemarle County Board of Supervisors

and

Charlottesville City Council

?  How many names can you put to the faces below?

Charlottesville Tomorrow

has just released our updated

Election Watch website

for the 2007 elections.


Charlottesville Tomorrow is a non-partisan organization and we do not endorse any candidates.  Our goal is to offer the most comprehensive coverage of local elections to ensure the public is informed about each candidate’s positions on the issues of land use, transportation and community design.


Want to learn more about the candidates?

On our website you can read the candidates’ bios, find their websites and blogs, and start educating yourself about why these citizens want to represent YOU in local government.



Do you know WHERE to vote or WHO you will have on your ballot?

Our website has links to helpful election websites and a map of the County candidates running for Supervisor.


Want to know who is ahead in campaign fundraising?

Charlottesville Tomorrow is supporting the Virginia Public Access Project (VPAP) local elections initiative.  From our Election Watch website you have easy access to each candidate’s contributor list.


Want to attend a candidate forum?

Charlottesville Tomorrow has the community’s only comprehensive election calendar.  Seven candidate forums have already been scheduled and Charlottesville Tomorrow is co-sponsoring four of those events in October.

Even more information will appear on our website as we approach election day, including in-depth coverage on this blog with audio and video downloads of the candidate forums.  You will be able to download the audio or transcripts of our candidate interviews in September.  And the last week before the election, Charlottesville Tomorrow will mail a voter guide to every household with one of these local races on the ballot.


Want to help Charlottesville Tomorrow make these resources available?

Charlottesville Tomorrow needs your help to ensure our local elections get the coverage they deserve.
