Candidates and Issues the Mission - Fox 28: South Bend, Elkhart IN News, Weather, Sports

As part of our commitment to improving the political process, FOX28 and all other Quincy broadcast group stations are providing qualified candidates for major office free access to television and/or Internet time, in advance of the November 2012 General Election.

All candidates for state and legislative races in the FOX28 area have been offered the opportunity to produce and submit a video of up to one minute in length. Those who did so by the September 17th, 2012 deadline are published on our main Candidates and Issues page. Races containing candidates who did not submit videos or whose videos did not meet the requirements do not have links.

The messages from candidates for statewide and Congressional office will air on FOX28 News at 10 and the FOX28 Morning Show.  The other videos for legislative races are being made available here on FOX28.com. 

The candidates have been instructed to use the time to talk about themselves and their campaigns while avoiding negative comments about opposing candidates. The videos and the transcripts we publish are not edited by us. We have taken the additional step of removing advertising from this section of FOX28.com, in order to present the information as cleanly as possible.

We believe these messages will help voters make the most informed decision come election day.
