Good Folks of Chapel Hill and Orange County,
The Orange County Democratic Women is sponsoring a forum for County Commissioners and Sheriff candidates. The event is tonight, March 25, at 7:30 p.m. It will be held at the OWASA community room at 400 Jones Ferry Road. If you can't make the forum, tune in to OP's live blog for real time coverage.
For those of you that won't be able to make it to tonight's County Commissioner Candidate forum, I will be liveblogging the event here on OP!
The forum starts at 7pm and it is being held at Chapel Hill's Town Hall on MLK Blvd.
I don't have any more to report besides the contents of the press release below, which was released by the Town of Hillsborough this morning. I wonder if something changed since he filed for office over a month ago, or if the campaign is just now getting going.
Hillsborough Police Chief Clarence Birkhead will step down as the Police
Department’s head on April 2.“As you know, I am a candidate for sheriff of Orange County,”
the police chief stated in his resignation letter. “I feel that I
should devote all of my energies to my campaign. Under the circumstances, I
feel it is best for the Town of Hillsborough and my campaign to step
down.”
Congratulations to the C H News winning awards from the NC Press Association: Editorial page: first place; use of photographs, second place, and in investigative reporting, Mark Schultz won 3rd place -- but Mark is to be congratulated for all three awards.
