For Champaign park board: Newt Dodds

Fans of the Champaign Park District don't have to worry about who's running for election to the five-member park board. Two candidates are running for one open seat, and both, longtime incumbent Newt Dodds and challenger Rob Kanter, are well-qualified. That, however, presents a dilemma: for whom does one vote?

The News-Gazette is endorsing Newt Dodds, and that's not a knock on Kanter.
