Don't Miss Our 6 PM News Broadcast Tonight With Candidate Jim Rutledge

Tonight we'll feature candidate Jim Rutledge at 6:00 PM and tomorrow morning at 9:05 we'll feature Senator Andy Harris with a Special Guest Anchor Delegate Addie Eckardt in the driver's seat asking questions.

We thought we'd change things up a bit for Andy's interview while Addie truly asked the tough questions and didn't let up one bit.

Tomorrow morning should wrap up all of our candidate interviews. If Ehrlich and O'Malley's schedules clear up we'll provide their interviews at a later point.

On a personal note, I want to thank each and every one of the 38 Candidates we interviewed. I enjoyed meeting each and every one of you and enjoyed learning what each of you are all about and what you had to offer your districts.

Of course, (off camera) we were able to discuss a whole lot more and as everyone came to learn, 10 minutes flies by before you know it. I want to also thank G.A. Harrison for assisting with the questions asked to each candidate.

Folks, we did everything we could to get Ehrlich and O'Malley on board. I'm not giving up hope but if the Eastern Shore isn't important enough for these candidates to get on board, well, I think that speaks volume.

We'll provide another update on how many views each candidate received and we expect those numbers to rise as we get closer to the actual primary election. We will also provide a different format for each district as we'll publish these interviews in order, (per district) once again as we get closer to the primary election.

Because of these interviews, I have been invited by the Wicomico Neighborhood Congress to be one of the Panelists in the States Attorney Forum on September 1st at the MAC Center. I will come to that event loaded with 10 strong questions for the three candidates, just in case someone else asks a similar question before I get the chance to ask mine.

We hope you have enjoyed these interviews, the questions asked and the candidates responses. More importantly, we hope this format helped you to get to know each candidate better in order to make a sound decision in this election. We will be interviewing each candidate once again before the General Election.

What about the other At Large candidates for Wicomico.. Did they chose not to do the interview? Cowall? Lewis? Taylor?

Every single candidate was sent an invitation to do an interview. The ones you mentioned never responded.
