Who are the Candidates and Why are they Running?

I would love to know about Mr Pransky for the School Committee. What is his issue and why is he running? Mr Hathaway is a known commodity, but he is still welcome to write in his agenda. I think I would be extremely likely to vote for a new person but not if I have no idea what he or she is about. If the current level of information stays the same i will be voting for BLANK. not leaving it blank but actually filling in the blank spot. What a sad commentary that BLANK could win the election.
