Editors Note

The number of political letters we have received from readers in our coverage area (Haywood, Jackson, Macon, and Swain counties, along with the Qualla Boundary) during this election season has been almost overwhelming. We’ve worked to get all of them in print, but we’re not quite going to make it. If you submitted a letter and it is not in this edition, it will be in this section of our website.

Thanks to all who took the trouble to sit down and put your thoughts to paper. We’ll be working late election night — Tuesday, Nov. 3 — to get election results in our Wednesday, Nov. 4, edition. It may be delivered an hour or two later than usual, so we’ll apologize in advance for that.

At our inception 20 years ago, we chose to be different. Unlike other news organizations, we made the decision to provide in-depth, regional reporting free to anyone who wanted access to it. We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home. If you are able, please support The Smoky Mountain News.

The Smoky Mountain News is a wholly private corporation. Reader contributions support the journalistic mission of SMN to remain independent. Your support of SMN does not constitute a charitable donation. If you have a question about contributing to SMN, please contact us.
