Two Good Candidates
NORFOLK —Norfolk is fortunate to have two very good candidates running for mayor. I want to commend both Tom Schommer and Sue Fuchtman for submitting to the rigors and public scrutiny of the campaign and even more of the same if elected mayor.

The one thing I believe in is that Tom Schommer will absolutely, without doubt, be independent, do what is right and not be unduly influenced by anyone.

Not everyone can resist the pressures that go along with being recruited for a public office.

Whoever is our next mayor has to bring all Norfolkans together and heal the wounds and divisions of the past. I believe Tom Schommer can do this.

He will offer fresh perspectives and strive to fairly represent all citizens equally.
