Live at Dearborn Homecoming, we interview two more candidates for Dearborn City Council in the Primary election, next Tuesday, August 6: Patrick Melton and Stephen Dobkowski, Jr. Dearborn Police Chief Ron Haddad also stops by our WHFR broadcast tent for a brief interview, too.

Two more candidates for the Dearborn City Council are interviewed today: Colette Richards and Mike Sareini. We give each a separate "fifteen minutes of fame" (Andy Warhol) and let you decide who to vote for--21 choices for the council in the August 6 Primary Election! Previous WHFR Journal Council candidate interviews available on this website as a podcast: June 28: Jane Ahern & Mo Berro, May 17: Kristyn Taylor.

Our first interview with our college's new president: Dr. Stanley Jensen. Dr. Jensen began here in this position on May 1st of this year--to a surprisingly large deficit, only realized accurately in the few months preceding his appointment. So we'll ask him about his background and experience, how we got into this difficult budget problem, and what are some of the steps that have been taken and still need to be taken. And, how Henry Ford Community College can and will, nonetheless, maintain the educational excellence its know for.

One segment on the show today begins our series of interviews--to continue in upcoming shows--with the challengers to be on the ballot for Dearborn City Council in the August 6 primary election . Kristyn Taylor will be responding to our questions and giving her opinions--and asking for your vote.

For most of the hour, we have our Michigan 15th District Representative George Darany to answer questions about what's been happening--and not--in the State legislature.

Mayor O'Reilly comments on the State of the City, current local events, and the upcoming elections in the Fall. Our annual Radiothon special--things you need to know, and not just sound bites.
