Meet the Candidate: Kris Samraj
MEDICINE HAT, AB – An interest in politics and a drive to learn how his city operates has prompted Kris Samraj to seek public office
Samraj, who is the head of non-fiction services at the Medicine Hat Public Library, is among the 19 candidates seeking election to city council. He says he has been putting in lots of work to learn about the position and what being a councillor entails.
“I’ve been attending city council meetings for the past three years, because I’m interested in politics, and I wanted to learn as much about the process as I could” Samraj said.
In his time attending the meetings, Samraj noticed one thing about how council voted on issues, which gave him another reason to run for the seat.
