Allen Spalt deserves re-election to the Carrboro Board of Aldermen. Throughout his first term and his prior service to the town, Spalt has proven this. He has the ability to look at every issue from different angles. This is not just an open-minded approach but a scientific way of gathering information. Spalt is the kind of leader who faces the facts.
Public opinion weighs heavily at election time. Allen Spalt works hard to protect Carrboro from the environmental and cultural effects of sprawling development. Many voters don't realize how strongly he leads the Board of Aldermen as a seeker of informed consensus and as an environmentalist. He's also a teacher who lays the facts clearly on the table. Voters who want the best for Carrboro can win by re-electing Allen Spalt.
