I got another call today from a candidate in the 5th Congressional District, why there's no profile of him (I didn't catch his name) in the 5th District section of our Campaign 2006 site. Sorry to repeat a Polinaut entry but here it is: you have to tell me you're running. Simple, eh?
So if you're a candidate, send me a photo, your biography (data of birth, city of residence, hometown, family, religion etc.), your education information, your previous political experience, your occupation and a statement of candidacy (for the snapshot), your Web site, if you have one.
That should about do it. It's no secret why some candidates might not find a page on the extensive Campaign 2006 site: they're a secret to me. It's not great science.
