Our League holds Candidate Forums for the Candidates running for election. We invite all of the Candidates to participate, ask them the same list of questions, and give them equal time to answer.

We also hold a Pros & Cons Forum in which we discuss the State Propostions and Local Ballot Measures that will appear on your ballots in the next election.

 

We will hold Candidate Forums in September and October 2024 prior to the Presidential Election in November.
