Tamara Nelsen
Welcome to Nelsen For Council. This site is intended to be where the voters of Sidney can learn more about me as a candidate and my views on the issues. As a former editor of The Sun-Telegraph, and most recently a reporter for sidneystagecoach.com, I am the ideal candidate for council because of my knowledge of the community. For the past several years, I have reported on school board and county commissioner meetings, attending meetings of several political subdivisions such as the Sidney Historic Preservation board, the Sidney Historical Association, the fair board and city council. If I wasn’t covering an event, I was likely editing someone else’s report on it. That goes for community events in general. People will most likely recognize me as the lady with the camera, as I have had the privilege of being inside the ropes, front and center, for just about every major news event in Sidney recently. I have interviewed everyone from senators to a local woman who grew a batch of strange looking carrots.
Please feel free to contact me with your questions or comments by e-mailing tamaranelsen@gmail.com.

The final countdown

Only a few more days until the primary election is complete. Only a few more days to decide which six candidates for the city council will be on the ballot in November.
I hope that I will be one of the “Sidney Six,” and ultimately, hope to show you my knowledge of the issues is worth your vote in November.
After the primary I will be dropping my link to KSID’s Web site, at least for a while.
(If I do advance to the November ballot, I will link this site again when the election is closer.)
In the meantime, please bookmark the page and share the address with anyone who is interested.
If I do not advance in the election, I will continue to be an interested observer and will continue writing about local issues.
