With each passing election, candidates for local and state-level office use Front Porch Forum more and more. We’ve been evolving our policy on this, centered on serving our subscribers’ interest and not giving incumbents or any other class an unfair advantage.
Many candidates are taking advantage of our posting policy leading up to the March 3 Town Meeting Day. Here’s a nice thank-you note from Amy Booher, who is running for City Council in Winooski…
Thank you so much for all that Front Porch Forum does, not just allowing local candidates a voice, but for all the online neighborhood forums. It is a wonderful service.
