Candidates for mayor, city council and school board in Charlotte turned out to the joint MeckPAC-Charlotte Business Guild candidates reception at the Lesbian & Gay Community Center on Oct. 14. View photos from the evening here.

Despite a cold and rainy evening, approximately 60 or more citizens gathered to meet a dozen or so candidates and hear MeckPAC’s announcement of this year’s general election endorsements. Q-Notes will report the endorsements when the organization makes them available online.

Both Republican John Lassiter and Democrat Anthony Foxx, candidates for mayor, attended.
