How
We Make Our Endorsements
We
asked all candidates in each race to submit answers to a detailed questionnaire
covering a wide set of issues that impact bicycling and walkingfrom
funding for trails, to bike safety issues, to economic development,
and so on. We reviewed those answers, along with the candidates' records,
to make our endorsements.
