From now until Election Day in November there will be apeeches and state-ments and press conferences. One thing is for sure: there will be plenty of "quotes" from lots of sources in the next few months.

Your newspaper will be covering the important news of as many races as possible. Whether it's a presidential candidate or someone running for local office, if it's important, we'll cover it. We can't promise that all of these political statements will make sense. We can promise that we'll put them in print so you can read and re-read them. When we quote a candidate, you can be sure you "heard it right" because you've read it in print.

We'd like to invite you to follow the political action every day in our panes. If you're not already getting home-delivery, just call our cir-ulation department and we'll happy to get you started.
