10/28/14 BOSTON — For all those voters still undecided, the League of Women Voters’ online election guide to candidates for statewide office provides an easy and impartial way to compare the candidates’ stands on issues.
All 21 candidates for statewide offices on the November ballot have answered questions posed by the League of Women Voters of Massachusetts. Their responses are presented in a Voters’ Guide to Statewide Offices on the League’s website, www.lwvma.org.
The five candidates for governor answered questions on economic development, education, transportation, climate change and health care. Candidates for lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state, treasurer and auditor answered questions specific to those offices.
Voters can use the guide to read each candidate’s responses to all the questions or to read all the candidates’ responses to a particular question.
“We hope voters across the Commonwealth will use this voters’ guide to help make informed choices as they go to the polls on Nov. 4,” said Anne Borg, co-president of the League of Women Voters of Massachusetts. “We are pleased to be able to provide this information and thank all the candidates for their willingness to participate in the guide.”
The League of Women Voters is a non-partisan political organization which encourages informed and active participation in government and works to increase understanding of major public policy issues.
