" The Frontiersman is an extremely biased newspaper. The editor is a hard nosed republican and somehow other candidate's letters and submissions kept getting "lost". They also quietly denied a lot of blog comments once they got sick of all the Dunleavy backlash. Will THIS post be allowed? hmmmmm... "

" I would like to know what we would need to do to get some more public forums for the local canidates to participate in during campaigning? Now that this election is over, I have to say that if it were not for the fact that I personally know several of the canidates relying on the written statements of them and Letters to the Editors are EXTREMELY misleading. Anybody can talk a good talk when they are preparing a couple paragraph pre-thought about description of themselves. "

" I am a political Junky and I think I know who and what you are referring to because I do my research on all the candidates before I vote. You should do your research. The newly elected official must have heard that her competition was after her because her businesses are now licensed. Go figure. "

" Frontiersman has NOT provided great coverage. They know it. The Frontiersman is aware of a story they could have broke two weeks ago about a candidate who has a business who has not had, city, borough or a state license sine the early 90's. They have not paid their city taxes since the early 90's although they still continue to run their businesses. So, why Frontiersman? Why have you chosen to control this election? You were given the facts o paper. No lawsuit here. YOu had the facts. Why?......didn't you inform.....the.....people? "

" Please get out and vote but please be aware of who you are voting for and what you are voting for. You may be voting for something you don't really want. So be informed before you mark your ballot. Think about the long term ramifications of your actions. Be smart, be informed! "

" John Harkey is right, no to sales taxes and big spenders like Mike Dunleavy who is supported by Pro-Tax lobbyist. "

" Thanks to the Frontiersman for the excellent coverage on this election. I can hardly wait for you to go to a daily so I can cancel my subscription to the ADN! "

" Vote on the tax then and leave the rest of the ballot blank if that is the only issue you know anything about. That is a no brainer. I don't think I am great but do believe in using common sense. See you at the polls. "

" Just say no to SALES TAX and the big spenders running for office, you know who they are, let them know as well. Please VOTE. "

" Get off you high horse! Everyone has a right to vote. Doesn't matter how much they know of the issues. Sure it is best to educate yourself before hand but really to think that because I might not know all the issues and still vote I am being disrespectful. Come on. Maybe I don't know anything about the candidates but feel strongly about The sales tax. Your statement show how great you think you are. "

" This is a good civic minded article with one exception,"Everyone needs to participate." WRONG !! Only those who have taken the time to study the candidates, propositions and bond issues should vote. Those who really don't care enough to become educated should respect those of us who do and stay home. "
