FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

This is now: Mayoral Guide

A huge deadline is quickly approaching: April 16. That's the last day you can register to vote in the May 15 primaries for Philadelphia's mayoral race. To help you in your decision of who to support, Campus Philly has created a special Mayoral Guide.

Our Mayoral Guide features articles on the top issues affecting students: crime, education, public transportation, and the environment. There is also an article explaining a special question on the ballot to establish a Youth Commission; and profiles of each of the candidates and their stances on the top issues.

The goal of the Guide is to make it simple for you to become an educated voter by providing clear, objective information on each of the candidates in one place. Campus Philly is a non-partisan organization. Our only political opinion is that you should have one!
