Final chat at 8:30
The OPTV "broadcast" is taking a break and will return for a final wrap-up at 8:30.
Interest in a follow up?
Well, this whole thing didn't go as well as we had hoped. This was mostly due to a lack organization, htough it was also hard to compete for attention with the Electoral College. Would y'all be interested in us doing a follow-up video (live & interactive, or pre-recorded) where the OP posse and some other local experts and candidates discuss the elections results and what's ahead?If I hear crickets, I'll happily shift my energy to some other issues. ;-)
potential topic
One thing that was extremely helpful to me when I considered running for local office was the advice that current and former elected officials were willing to share. Tips like "you have to compete, but try not to win the sign war" from Mark Chilton.An interactive session like that would seem to be extremely valuable service from this community.
A thread right here
might be the simplest way to share perspectives. Interactive is interesting.
