The LWV of Alachua County and the UF Bob Graham Center for Public Service hosted a highly successful, highly attended primary candidate forum on Sunday, 6/23/24, at the Bob Graham Center for Public Service. Sixteen candidates running for sheriff, county commission, Gainesville city commission, school board and state representative district 22 participated. They answered questions composed by the League while an overflow audience filled all the chairs, lined the staircases and watched from a balcony above. Afterward the crowd enjoyed free refreshments while talking with the candidates. Candidates and guests had glowing comments about the event.

Here's the Action Alert ask for this week:

1. If you missed the event, you can watch it here.
2. Don’t miss the next one! On September 22, 2024, the general election forum will take place at Santa Fe College. Mark it on your calendar and save the date. The time and other details will be announced as plans unfold.
