A group called Davidson Coalition for Fiscal Responsibility has built an email list of about 100 names and is planning meetings this summer in hopes of influencing the fall elections for the Davidson Town Board. The group’s primarily goal is in its name – fiscal responsibility. Organizers say town officials have made some bad financial decisions in recent years, and they want to help elect new leaders who will change the picture. See the full story on our Election 2011 page.

By the way, Election 2011 is a new page on DavidsonNews.net, and we’re hoping it will become a primary source for all things election-related this fall in and around Davidson. We invite you to participate by sending meeting notices, letters to the editor, endorsements, links to outside web articles, photos of events and other election news. Send information to me at editor@davidsonnews.net. We’ll be reaching out candidates, political organizers and commenters as well. Stay tuned.
