Questions for Upcoming Candidate Forum: Please Submit by February 15, 2021

February 12, 2021

Candidate ForumOn Monday, February 15, LWVN together with NewTV will be taping Candidate Forums for the candidates in the March 16, 2021 Special Election.  We need questions to ask the candidates.

Send us questions YOU would like to ask the candidates for the vacant Ward 1 and Ward 2 At-Large City Council seats.  We can’t guarantee they will be used verbatim, but we will try to address as many topics and questions as possible.  We especially appreciate questions that are direct and about 1-2 sentences long–these tend to mean more direct and focused answers. Please submit your questions before 4:00 pm on Monday, February 15 to LWVN and use the subject line “Questions for Candidates in 2021 Special Election”.

Our forums will be taped by NewTV, to be shown on NewTV at a later date and available online.  Check our website for viewing information!
