Common Council and Mayoral candidates answer questions

During the past few weeks, Eye on Oshkosh has interviewed 11 of the 14 candidates for Oshkosh Common Council and 4 of the 5 mayoral candidates. Some shows have yet to air on CATV 2, but they will in the next two weeks. In the meantime, however, we have compiled candidates' answers and guest co-host Tony Palmeri has assembled them all for you in a very user-friendly grid.

Please go to http://www.tonypalmeri.com/council05.htm and check out the city council candidates' responses. A similar grid for the mayoral candidates will be put online as soon as it is ready.

This grid will also link you to the Oshkosh Northwestern pages in which the candidates' positions on other issues are printed for your review.

It should be noted that candidate Jenni Ryan was unable to appear on an Eye on Oshkosh segment to discuss her candidacy and candidates Marianna Stout and John Weinsheim failed to return phone calls made to them. So, unfortunately, you will not have an opportunity to see where they stand on the issues presented to the other 11 city council candidates.

Mayoral candidate John Daggett has not provided a phone number to anyone, including the City Clerk's office at City Hall. So, because we had no convenient way of reaching this candidate for public office, his positions on the issues will not be presented either.
