Find out more about the candidates' views on key topics by checking out the "AAFP Candidate Web Sites" page (Members Only). From that page, you can link to each candidate's individual Web page, read his or her personal statement and review biographical information and a curriculum vitae.

You also can ask questions of the candidates via the "Question/Answer Forums" option shown on the main candidates page or by using the "Q & A" link on each candidate's page. Be sure to check back later to see the candidates' responses. Then, if you find you have views in common with some of the candidates, consider asking your chapter delegates to the AAFP Congress to vote for those candidates.
