Phil asks:

	"Just wondering how it is that without any poll of those of us
who are 
	subscribed and members of this open forum, any "questionare"
from V2020 or 
	for that matter a V2020 committee to devise such a was come up
with."

Phil (and other concerned voter-type people),

On July 19, Bill London posted "The Elections Are Coming", a post asking
the vision2020 readership for questions to ask prospective candidates.
(see http://mailman.fsr.com/pipermail/vision2020/2005-July/018936.html)

Here's the text of the email:
	
	"It's election time in Moscow....The candidates are beginning to
announce for various races 	and the autumn filing date approaches.
With the mayor and four council candidate positions 	open this year,
it's bound to be an interesting campaign.

	The V2020 Candidate Questionaire Committee has, for the last
four elections, provided an on-	line source of the candidates' views on
specific issues. If you would like to participate in 	the committee's
work this year (creating the questions, communicating with the
candidates, 	etc), please contact Bill London at london at moscow.com

	The candidate questions and responses from the last four years
are preserved on-line at
http://vision2020.moscow.com/election/historic.asp
	If you wonder what this year's candidate said four years ago,
this historic record is the 	place to go.

	Our thanks, of course, go to the First Step Wizards for setting
up that web repository.  We 	appreciate their community-mindedness.
	BL"

Of course this was back in July, which seems like a long time ago, and
some candidates may have not even fully decided they were going to run
again.  But the chance was offered.  How many took up the task, I don't
know.  I'd like to, as well as who they are.  Just for giggles.

P.S. Vote for me :)
