I recently received my mail in voting card from the city of Easthampton. I had the option of voting for 35 people, of whom I knew nothing. I called the city office and left a message requesting information. I received no answer, I looked on line for a phone number and/or information about those running from the Democratic Party. I could not find a number to call, I started to try to look these people up individually by whatever info was out there on line but gave up. I sent in my vote card with only the president chosen. What kind of a way is this to run an election? I don’t care if they have been chosen by the Democratic Party I want to be an informed voter, actually thought that was expected of me.
