Election 2017: The candidates speak

February 15, 2017 CandSpeak

– Page initiated Feb. 14 2017

Some of the candidates in the 2017 primary and general elections come and go at the Forum. They or their surrogates often use the Announcements time at the end of the Forum to speak up about their candidacies. Occasionally, candidates on the ballot will be at the Forum and will comment on other matters without directly referencing their candidacies.

At some point in each election cycle, the Forum holds sessions to hear presentations from candidates, and to listen to their answers to questions.

Videos made of all those comments are posted as they become available. This page will serve as an index to the separate pages where the videos appear. The Forum does not endorse candidates.

Beginning July 17, 2017, we started adding to the pages below contact information for the campaigns as that material became available. The Forum cannot vouch for the accuracy of all of this information, and it is provided solely as a voter service. Campaigns wishing to share contact inforomation in this way should send it here by e-mail.
