It's ridiculous that someone could represent a group of people without telling them. This is a good proposal

What happened in the last was a travesty and should not be allowed to happen again.

Since the current Town Council majority has disregarded grassroots input for other issues, I am fear that this petition will have a similar fate. I think the Town's governance structure should also add a provision to allow public referendums. Nevertheless, thanks very much for organizing this petition.

I fail to see why the Town shouldn't follow state law on this issue. Voters should know of ALL candidates standing in an election.

What happened this past election should never be repeated.

To be meaningful, he required financial disclosures should also be available at least 7 days before the election.

Had the Town's Election Code been revised sooner to comply with that of the State, we could have well avoided this year's fiasco.

I hereby signify my support for the petition requiring a minimum of seven days' notice prior to the election by candidates for the Chevy Chase town council.

I believe in secret ballots. I do not believe in secret candidates.
