Town Council Candidate Trivia Challenge

I have had the pleasure of getting to know the six Town Council candidates  over the past  few weeks and I have found that Merrimack has  a great crop of candidates running. The interviews can be seen on channel 22 and are also posted on Merrimack Patch.

As Merrimack citizens we are very lucky to have such a diverse and talented group of candidates running. If you watch the interviews that I conducted ( Meet your Merrimack candidates) you will see that all six  candidates are successful, well rounded and thoughtful, yet they all had different upbringings and took different paths that  have brought them to the point where they want to serve their fellow citizens as a Town Councilor. I could not do justice to all  of the candidates in one blog entry but I feel I have found  a way to whet your appetites about them and give you some tid bits that will make you curious enough where you will want to watch the interviews.

Today I will will be giving a  trivia quiz about the Town Council Candidates based on the interviews I conducted  and in a few days I will do a quiz about the The School Board Candidates. The answers are below. Have fun
