UPDATED: Some thoughts about tonight’s Halifax County Candidates Forum…

(Originally Published on: Oct 30, 2009 @ 19:27)

Update #2: To reflect the Halifax County Chamber of Commerce’s reply to the update.

Update #3: Issuing retraction on “candidates being told not to say anything negative”

Shame on the people that could have attended the forum but didn’t. I did not mean to impugn the people that had good reasons for not attending and I sincerely apologize for phrasing that in the way that I originally did.

Let’s go over some random thoughts about tonight’s event.
