Ann Mallek in Crozet
For two weeks in a row, I’ve noticed candidate for the Board of Supervisors, Ann Mallek, hanging out in The Square in Downtown Crozet. Apparently she’s been going door-to-door talking to the voters for some time now. It’s nice to see a candidate meeting with, and listening to, those whom she hopes to serve.Next time I’ll be prepared with a pen and notepad…. Stay informed at Charlottesville Tomorrow’s Election Watch – or just stop by and talk to her the next time she’s in the Square.
