Dear Editor:
A quick note of congratulations on North Shore News’ election coverage and push for voter engagement.
Not sure what made a difference, perhaps a synergy of efforts (and politics of course!), but voter turnout in the North Shore speaks to positive voter engagement.
My reading of North Shore News coverage was that it was extensive and balanced and no doubt that had a positive impact.
Kudos for your I Vote pieces — I’d like to see more faces representative of the diversity of North Shore residents next time.
And the extent to which citizens participate in democratic life between elections is as important as whether they vote. I look forward to North Shore News’ continuing reporting on citizen engagement between now and the next election.
