Stale Statements

Must the statements link to old position statements from previous elections? I read these and they sound stale and dated. I want to know where the candidates stand currently. Russell D. Jones 19:47, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

None of us have FINISHED making out statements, for pete's sake! Moreover, not everyone at CZ has been around since its inception. Would you please cut us a little slack? In any case, if you, or anyone else, doesn't like the quality of our statements, you have a simple option: vote for someone else. Hayford Peirce 20:36, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
Come on Hayford and snap to it! I want to read some new stuff!!  ;)
I'm not bent out of shape about it and neither should you be. I'm suggesting that maybe the link should be to a different page than your old statement (a blank page until you fill it in). I say we want to be fair to the candidates. You want to have control over your political statements; but here a link was set up to something which you may or may not have approved. Russell D.

You make a good point. I'll see what I can do. D. Matt Innis 20:56, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
