This just in from the KHUM studios:
KHUM 104.3/104.7 FM’s morning personality Cliff Berkowitz is interviewing district supervisor candidates throughout the month of May. The interview style will not be a debate, but a one on one conversation between each candidate and Berkowitz. “Lawn signs and quick sound bites aren’t enough to really get to know the candidates,” Berkowitz said. “When you sit down one-on one-with all the candidates, you really get to know who they are and what they stand for.”
The first interview takes place Monday, May 12 at 8:30 a.m. with Third District candidate Brian Bryan Plumley, followed by John Vevoda, Tuesday, May 13 at 7:30 a.m., Jimmy Smith, Wednesday, May 14 at 8:30 a.m., Mark Lovelace, Thursday, May 15 at 7:30 a.m. followed by Paul Pitino at 8:30, Clif Clendenen, Monday, May 19 at 8:30 a.m. and Estelle Fennell, Wednesday, May 21 at 8:30 a.m.
Each candidate will have the opportunity to talk about what they hope to accomplish as district supervisor. Cliff wants to educate the public to enable them to select the candidate they feel is best.”These aren’t debates ― just a chance to see what’s important to each of the candidates, why they’re running and how they’ll implement their ideas,” Berkowitz said. Listeners can also hear the candidate interviews via KHUM’s webstream and archives at khum.com.
Expect at least some talk about trails, one of Cliff’s favorite topics.
(Note: Links are included above for candidate websites, but we could not find one for John Vevoda. Does he have an official campaign webpage?)

Howdy Hank,
I think it’s ‘Bryan’ Plumley.
Also, will KHUM have Johanna on as well? While she’s not technically a candidate, it seems like it’d be heinous to not schedule her.
Nice of KHUM to do this.

Er, Bob, not Hank, sorry about that.

If KHUM did an individual interview with Johanna like they’re doing with the others it would be more appropriate then having her actually debate the candidates, IMO.

J Man - How would it be “heinous” not to schedule Johanna when she is not a candidate? Once she is signed up to be a write in then she is a candidate.

I could not find website for Vevoda either.
