Letter: Hoffman is the right choice for Kennett
To the Editor:
While every election is an important event, an opportunity to renew our individual commitment to our individual and community values, this election in Kennett Township is especially so.

Letter: Brookes has conflict of interest
To The Editor:
I am concerned. Being new to Chadds Ford I have been researching my new home and community. I was very disturbed to discover a conflict of interest in the upcoming election. Public officials should be held accountable to the highest standards of ethics and should avoid even the appearance of a conflict of interest.

And while most of the primaries will likely be either anti-climatic — with Democrats winning Democratic nominations and Republicans (or the much-maligned and increasingly endangered RINO)...
Letter: Backs Morley for justice
To The Editor,
As a current West Grove Borough Councilman, as well as a former Republican Committeeman, I am supporting Nicole Morley for Magisterial District Judge.

Letter: Hoffman cites reasons to run for Kennett supervisor
To The Editor:
In the last four years, there’s been a big change in the Kennett Township Board of Supervisors. Over two elections, voters soundly ousted an ‘old guard’ that ran the township and elected Scudder Stevens and Richard Leff who are committed to transparency and accountability. Since then, the Township checkbook has been put online, a professional audit has been conducted,...
