Elephant Tracks:

Norfolk Republicans are following the critical Superward 6 contest for City Council in Norfolk. It is important that citizens familiarize themselves with each candidate to make the best possible decision. We believe the successful candidate should adhere to Republican pricipals of free enterprise and small, but efficient, government.

To voice your opinion of the candidates and give our community a ground level view of each, please leave a comment in our FORUM HERE about the candidate you think will do the best job for Norfolk.
