CANDIDATE FORUMS

3rd District Candidate Forum

Before the Primary and General elections the League sponsors candidate forums where candidates respond to questions posed by the League. Forums are videotaped by CVTV, Channels 21 and 23, the local government channels, and replayed prior to the elections. You’ll also find them on streaming at CVTV election programming for your convenience.

To get more background about our forums we invite you to read our Candidate Forum Policy.
