	A huge turnout for this election is encouraged to clearly express interest in our City and Schools. We need to demonstrate our concern where it counts - at the ballot box. A consistently large turnout in elections will result in more impact at Town Hall and with KISD. Often turnout is low because of lack of information about the candidates. To help inform residents, the following information is provided - please read carefully. You will find clear differences on some issues and that perhaps none totally aligns with your views so compare and vote FOR the candidates that best reflects your overall priorities rather than against someone. Vote early - the lines are shorter.
