Questions for candidates

• What brought you to Perrysburg?
• Why do you like living here?
• Why are you running for City Council?
• What's in it for you?
• What do you hope people will say about you 12 months after they have been elected?
• Kevin only (since he is currently on Council) - advice for City Council Candidates

 

Format

Each candidate had 15 minutes to answer my questions. After editing, some interviews were longer than others.

 

Gratitude

THANK YOU to all four candidates for participating. Special thanks to Erin O'Rear for reaching out via the guest application form for the podcast about putting this episode together. Without that little nudge, I would not have thought to organize this episode. Politics are outside my comfort zone, and I typically avoid talking about them publicly. Thank you to Justin Edgell for reaching out about being a guest, and thank you to Brad Geiner and Kevin Fuller for saying, "Yes" to an interview. I would not have done this episode if all 4 candidates were not on-board. I care about making this episode fair for all the candidates. Thank you all again for participating. 

 

I hope this interview helps you feel more informed for the November 4, 2025 election. If you're a Perrysburg voter, please vote on November 4, 2025!

 

If you're not a Perrysburg resident yet, I hope hearing what brought these four to Perrysburg, why they like living here, and why they want to serve on Council was helpful to you. Perrysburg is a great town! ❤️
