A Candidate's Journey in Our Town by John McKay - It's Not Always a Level Playing Field

So what just happened that made me spill my milk? The Morgan Hill Times has published a couple of articles where I don’t think all parties were treated equally, neither the issues nor the people involved which includes all candidates and sitting councilmembers too. Not quite a drive by shooting, kind of closer to a Vespa rider with a whiffle ball bat whacking you up side the head, looks harmless but still hurts.

A Candidate's Journey in Our Town by John McKay - A Level Playing Field?

As a candidate I’m finding out you want every opportunity to shine, prove that you understand the issues, and are prepared to make the decisions that are best for the community. The variables you control in doing this are your message, how often you get in front of the public with events/walking door to door/social media, your visibility in signage/ads/website, and how much money you earn to do all that.
