CONWAY — County Commissioner Chuck McGee (R-Moultonborough) and challenger Tom Randell (D-Moultonborough) discussed county finances, facilities and services in a SUN-TV interview Thursday.
District 2 includes Madison, Moultonborough, Ossipee, Tamworth and Tuftonboro. Each of the three county commissioners must live in the district represented, but all are elected countywide. That means voters in Conway, which is in District 1, may also vote in the District 2 race.
