FAIL (the browser should render some flash content, not this).

Finding information about political candidates (especially first time candidates) is sometimes not easy.  And, we feel, a better educated electorate hopefully makes better decisions for everyone.
 
So, as a public service, my company and I decided to create a non-partisan website -- a political portal, if you will -- that will provide the Jackson County electorate some insight into candidates for the 2008 elections.  JacksonCountyDecision2008.com is the result.

This website provides a list of local, county, state, federal candidates and links to their websites or email.  To help level the playing field a bit, if a candidate does not have a website we will provide one page for them at no charge.

We decided that visitors might like to know a little about Jackson County so there is a page about our county as well.  And, because there are myriad places to go to find county and election related information, we have provided a page of helpful links.

If you are a candidate and want to add you link or add a page for your candidacy, please contact me.  If you can't find what you are looking for or think of something we can add that will provide valuable information to the electorate, please contact me.

Also, we are considering adding a moderated forum to allow the local candidates and the people to "interact" on the issues.  If you would like to see such a forum made available, please contact me.

For other counties go to the Banks County website or the Barrow County website for their information.

And above all else, exercise your hard won right to vote.  Register to vote and VOTE on election day and encourage everyone you know to do the same.

See you at the polls!!
