SOS: We need your help choosing which story to tackle next. 

Our readers consistently submit dozens of questions through Open Source, a platform where you can ask the Richland Source newsroom to investigate something you’ve always wondered.

We’ve already answered questions like, Who was the 1st person buried in Mansfield Cemetery? How did Shelby City Schools get its Whippet mascot? and What’s the story with the collapsed roof on the old Mansfield prison building? 

Now, we want our audience’s help to choose our next story assignment. We’ve narrowed the selection to three questions submitted through Open Source: 

Whichever question receives the most votes by Tuesday, November 9 will be answered in the coming weeks. 

Anyone can submit a question you want answered about your community. Our newsroom will select some to answer immediately, others will be put up for a public vote, where the most popular question will be answered.

Vote above by November 9, or submit your own question below. We might choose yours to investigate next.
