The Record-Courier has published some sort of guide to the elections for most of its existence.
While the format has changed, the purpose remains to provide the newspaper’s readers with a means to navigate the sometimes confusing list of candidates.
The current form is the printed version of a candidates forum, where people seeking office may share some of what they stand for with the newspaper’s readers.
The newspaper reached out to candidates from the U.S. Senate down to improvement district.
Not every candidate The R-C reached out to responded to the request for information, which is also a form of response.
