Election Day is this Tuesday, November 6th! What a change from years past when there was just the newspaper pullout section to guide voters. Now, there are many forums for voters to consider their choices.

Over on Left In Lowell, Lynne and Mimi have consolidated their voter information on one page – here.  They did detailed questionnaires for each race and have the answers from those who responded. They have also offered every candidate the opportunity to record an interview with them and these are listed here as well (I understand that they are diligently working to get more of these podcasts up on the site before Tuesday).  They also have made available the Stand for Children voters’ guide and have a link to the Lowell Sun candidate information.

The United Teen Equality Center (UTEC) held their own youth-led debates for city council and school committee candidates last week. To view streaming videos of the debates online, check the following links: For the council debate, click here. For the school committee forum (which was televised live), click here.

UML Sunrise (91.5 fm) has been doing candidate podcasts and has many of them up on their site.  You have to click on podcast and then scroll back through until you see one under the category of election coverage.  I did the work and found Jackie’s Sunrise podcast for you. I think they’ve done one for all the candidates, so it would be worth scrolling through to find them all.
