MBStrong Voter Guide, click [HERE].
Our recommendations have the highest Star Ratings in our Guide (see below).
We spent weeks researching facts on each MB candidate to bring you a comprehensive tool to help you cut through some of the rumors and rhetoric about the candidates.
By now you know our values, principles, and commitment to bringing you facts on the issues: Bruce's Beach, Measure A, inappropriate social media posts by a School Board Member, HighRose, etc.
We think you will find our Voter Guide reliable and helpful.
There are 2 sections: a Candidates at a Glance section that you can use with your ballot (see below), and a section listing facts to show our reasoning for the star rating of each candidate and the reasoning for our “endorsement” of one candidate.
