Auburn Skies

Coming in Friday’s edition is a peek at the mayoral primary election. Four candidates, including two-term incumbent Pete Lewis, will battle for two spots in Tuesday’s all-mail vote primary.  Reporter Robert Whale spent extra time with each candidate as a good gesture, an opportunity for them to add any late comments regarding the city and their respective platforms. Each carries a different tune, and I encourage voters to read their accounts and cast an informed vote, if they haven’t already. Throughout the race, we have encouraged letters and blogs from each candidate. We kept our door open for free-flowing thought. The Lewis campaign has been the most active and consistent, as readers will find by the series of published pro-incumbent letters. Again, we encouraged all parties to do so. As the campaign enters the autumn weeks ahead, we again will provide comprehensive coverage. We invite readers to offer their views and suggestions. We will invite the candidates to blog on our site. We encourage letters. Good luck to each candidate in the primary, and please vote.
