The official Tom Henry for Mayor has a new look.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But, to be very honest, I’m not sure about the image on the home page under the heading, ‘Mayor Henry makes it official, seeks new term’. While I won’t swear to this, the photo seems like one I remember seeing four years ago when he first ran for Mayor. I will swear to the fact that I don’t remember seeing Karen Goldner at the announcement today and I certainly don’t remember seeing former Mayor Graham Richard or Tom Hayhurst there either. The podium was also a different color – which was the first thing that caught my eye.<\/p>\n

I have to admit I was surprised, at first anyway, to see https:\/\/twitter.com\/tomhenry4mayor and https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=657618734 links on the page.<\/p>\n

However, surfing into both, I remembered seeing these before.\u00a0In fact, the Twitter page has zero Tweets, Following’s, Followers or Listed’s. The facebook page says that I have a pending friend request, but to be honest, I’m thinking that was possibly a year ago. I can’t pull up a date, but it’s been a long time! There’s a graphic on the website suggesting one follow’s them on facebook, but that’s kind of difficult if they don’t approve the requests. Looks like there’s\u00a0a bit more work to be done.<\/p>\n

Anyway, the website holds much promise. Lots of information on what he’s accomplished – and there are some big accomplishments, but one glaring\u00a0omission\u00a0– what does he want to do with another four years? What does he see in the future of Fort Wayne? Where does he want to take us next? A candidate’s website, which is a reflection of their campaign and candidacy, should answer, among others, two basic questions:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What a candidate hopes to accomplish if elected, or in this case, re-elected; and<\/li>\n
  2. What’s the plan?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    There’s still time to talk about these two things, it’s very early in this race.<\/p>\n

    Just my two cents worth.<\/p>\n
