1. Looks ok to me
I'm assuming that's placeholder text for the moment?

2. LOL
Yeah... The candidate and campaign manager also pointed out that it's not in english after the first sentence...

It's the "typical" placeholder text "Lorem ipsum" (Latin) from

3. Fairly good
The only thing I would say is there might be too much space on the left and right borders, and also the background might be a different color other than white.

4. Lots of text indicated
I hope you don't put that much text on any page. Break stuff down to bulleted points. If you have more to say, link to another page with (again) limited text.

5. True true...
I know ;)

Thanks so far...

Actually have a meeting on precise content tonight, and of course bullet points and potentially a matching footer, coloring the body background, etc.

My main issue was completing the header adequately.

I just put 5 paragraphs of Lorem ipsum text to make it not empty. Worst case scenario, the only page like this might be bio or issues, but even then the paragraphs would have at lead bold lead-in headers...

For example:

First Responders and the security of our county. Though our county is remote, it was near the center of all the attacks that occured on September 11th. What many also do not know is that there are sensitive sites located within Adams County that could be considered prime targets for attack.

(of course I wouldn't use the above, albeit true, I guess we're not going to mention Site R's existence in our campaign ;) )
