Political yard signs are popping up all over the neighborhoods as the April 9 elections draw near. Why they’re even showing up near the upper right hand side of the page! DeKalb County Online asked the local candidates to place their campaign sign on our website in exchange for a $90 donation to their favorite local charity and then tell us why they chose their pick.

Liz CLiffe Peerboom, one of four write-in candidates for DeKalb City Clerk was the first to agree and in true clerk fashion she filled out the web form properly and sent us a photo in an attachment, as requested. Other candidates have joined our locals helping locals program, their signs are rotating on this website and their stories will also appear here.

Thanks to all of the candidates for their commitment to our community. It takes a lot of gumption just to step up and take the responsibility of becoming a public servant let alone entering a popularity contest based on who you are, what you’ve done and how you will fix the mess we’re in. The time commitment for campaigning is enormous for those who choose to become a candidate. And thanks to the local charities who provide so many services to our community, too.

Community giving…

My dad was a veteran, several of my brothers are veterans. Veterans sacrifice so much so that we can be free. Giving back to this organization, which helps veterans, is the least I can do.
