MANSFIELD — Ever want to assign Richland Source a story? Here’s your chance. 

The newsroom is currently considering three reader-submitted questions, but we’d like you to choose your favorite. Whichever question receives the most votes by Sunday, Jan. 20 will be answered in the coming weeks. 

All of the questions listed below were submitted through Open Source, a platform that gives readers control over the stories we cover. 

The process is simple. Anyone can submit questions they want answered about Richland County. The newsroom will select some questions to answer immediately and put other up for a public vote, where the most popular question will be answered.

Then, our staff will investigate and share the answer with you.

Vote below by Sunday, Jan. 20. And then submit your own question below. We might choose yours to investigate next.
