Today, we are opening a new window to view the fast-changing political scene in Sonoma County. Want to know who is running for office? What are their ideas to solve the increasingly complex problems facing our community? Where do they get their money? And what are people saying about them? We have a new Web site just for you:

WatchSonomaCounty.com.

The new site is a one-stop resource for news, analysis and commentary on local politics and public policy issues in Sonoma County.

It will feature links to stories, columns, blogs and behind-the-scenes insights from writers at The Press Democrat. It is also a place to keep an eye on what's being reported elsewhere in cyberspace about North Coast politicians, a hub that aggregates links to other sources of information about local issues. And it is an electronic town square for a vigorous but civilized debate on the public policy issues and political leaders that are shaping our changing community.

Go to WatchSonomaCounty.com for more information, including real-time updates on today's filing deadline for candidates running in the June 8 primary election.
