Rating Explanation

Lawrence Moore

While Lawrence Moore does not have a dedicated campaign website, there is more publicly available information about his candidacy than initially assumed. Moore serves as the Deputy Mayor of Harrison Township and has been featured in several local news articles and press releases. He has made public statements regarding his priorities, including controlling government spending, lowering taxes, and increasing school funding. This level of media engagement provides voters with a general sense of his political perspective, even in the absence of direct outreach or a formal campaign platform.

However, he has not responded to our direct outreach, nor has he participated in our voter information initiative. He has made at least one brief public appearance at a local Republican breakfast, which aligns with the general trend of accessibility seen among other Republican candidates in the area. Still, more proactive participation and centralized voter information would improve clarity and ease of access for constituents.

Note: While this is technically still the primary phase, both parties are running unopposed slates, meaning all four current candidates are expected to advance to the general election. This creates a valuable opportunity for candidates to begin clearly communicating their platforms early, giving voters more time to learn and engage. We encourage all candidates to take advantage of this head start by providing accessible, detailed information about their agendas and priorities.

For these reasons, Konawell receives a low rating for transparency and accessibility.

Suggested Use of Candidate Pages & Project Disclaimer

How to get the most out of this candidate page
  1. Start with the Quick Summary. Click the Quick Summary button underneath the websites section. It gives you the fast take: what we know from sources + brief analysis from a “data collector / local reporter” point of view.
  2. Scan the objective sources. If you want more data, jump into the source material we’ve collected:
    • Official campaign website (if available)
    • Social media pages and posts (if available)
    • Interviews (video/audio) and transcripts (if available)
  3. Check the agenda & positions. Look for the candidate’s stated agenda and issue stances. We try to group them plainly so you can compare across candidates quickly.
  4. Read the Transparency/Accessibility rating. For a deeper look at how transparent the candidate has been (web presence, interviews, follow-ups, meet n greets) and how communicative they've been in response to outreach, see the rating and its short explanation. This helps you understand what’s easy to find and who is easy to contact.
  5. Use the page as a multi-layered hub. If you 'just want the facts', stick to the source documents. If you want opinions about transparency, accessibility, and communication, check the transparency meter. If you want coverage somewhere in between, like interviews that range from introductory to moderately pressing, watch the interviews. Choose your own adventure.

Where we add context or opinion, it’s to help busy voters make sense of gaps in local information. Not everyone has time to be a volunteer politico.
