WESTMINSTER — I strongly support Emilie Kornheiser's candidacy and election to the office of state representative.

That said, it appears to me, as a veteran of various boards and committees, that both Zon Eastes and Michael Becker have performed well overall in addressing critical issues and in seeking to enhance the Guilford community. I am also wary of conspiracy theories, as they can be concocted so...
