Hot Down-Ballot Action

As most of you may know, there are some races beyond the mayor on this November's ballot. And the Fitchburg Pride is here to point you down the path to enlightenment.

Of course it is.

In tomorrow's paper, there's a front-pager on the School Committee candidates, as they check on what's important to them as they campaign for election.

There's a sprawling op-ed page(s), which include short pieces from the six candidates in the three contested ward council races (Wards 1, 4 and 5). The at-larges get their chance next week.

Expect to hear about teamwork, stabilizing finances, and neighborhood issues from the ward candidates in tomorrow's paper.

Oh, hey, now is a great time to remind you all that next Thursday, Oct. 25, is the big Pride, FATV, AM 1280 "The Blend" mayoral forum. It'll be live on FATV and "The Blend," and we expect live coverage and analysis over the Pride website. See you then.
