All forums will take place from 7:00 pm -8:30 pm.
“We’re urging people to look down the ballot,” said Candidate Forum Chair Lisa Welle Malone. “The candidates elected to these positions will be making decisions that directly affect our everyday lives.”
For most forums, questions can be submitted online up to 2 days prior to the forums and in-person on the day of the forum. The public is encouraged to write their questions in advance of attending the in-person forums.See links below to submit questions in advance.
