In this week’s Ridgefield Press

Here’s a look at some of the headlines from this week's Ridgefield Press:

• The Election train keeps roaming along: A new candidate for Planning and Zoning Commission, an opioid forum sponsored by the Democrats Saturday, and a meet-and-greet with Republicans Wednesday. And that's all before you get through page two!
• In this week's election preview section, The Press hears from candidates from the Board of Finance and Board of Education.
