Mayor candidate questionnaire: Robbie Perkins

As part of this year's Greensboro City Council election coverage, we'll ask all the candidates to answer a series of questions about themselves and their stance on the city issues.

This is not the only way we will evaluate the candidates in the coming weeks. Check back for updates from the campaign trail.

Candidate questionnaire: George Hartzman

As part of this year's Greensboro City Council election coverage, we'll ask all the candidates to answer a series of questions about themselves and their stance on the city issues.

This is not the only way we will evaluate the candidates in the coming weeks. Check back for updates from the campaign trail.
