Editor’s note on political letters

We welcome letters to the editor about the June 10 primary elections.

Letters are accepted from all except the candidates, who will be invited to submit candidate statements instead.

We do have a long-standing policy regarding letters about candidates in the last week before the election. Then we will print only letters that support candidates, not criticize them. The reason is fairness. A candidate who is criticized that week would not have an opportunity to respond before the election.
