Although only two candidates attended tonights forum it went extremely well. It just gave the two of us more time with the crowd that attended.
In attendence for candidates was Assemblyman Robin Schimminger and Assembly candidate Rus Thompson (me). Missing was my opponent Sam Hoyt, Robins opponent,I don't know who she is, Tom Reynolds (he is still in DC),George, maziarz (he had a conflict..), Jack Davis, Delmonte, Parenti, Slaughter..
So Robin and I had the stage all to ourselves which made the evening more fun. Although serious issues were brought up and questions were answered and we entertained the crowd. I like Robin and there was very little we disagreed on. He is a Democrat I could vote for, Thanks for attending Robin.
Such a shame that most wouldn't respond to the invite.
Also in the audience was Supervisor Peter McMahon, Councilman Dick Crawford, Gary Roesch and Councilwoman Mary Cooke. ![onstage](http://www.rusthompson.com/Pics/onstage.jpg)

We really enjoyed ourselves and so did the audience. After a little over an hour on stage we mingled and talked to everyone there.

Thanks for the ping, Rus. I hope the voters remember who showed up when it comes time to vote. They need to vote for someone--like yourself--who care enough to want to tell their positions. Sheesh!
