The District 5 City Council race is going to have two candidate forums (that I’ve heard of):
Today, August 30– an “informal meeting” at the First Congregational Church, 1070 Pleasant Street at 6:00pm. The organizers would like the meeting under an hour and a half.
Thursday, September 9 – this will be more of a formal candidate forum (I hope) at the IBEW Hall, 242 Mill Street, 6:30pm.
The candidates are:
Yenni Desroches, Etel Haxhiaj, Stephen Quist, and Gregory Stratman
Information about candidates:
WCCA has been having an “Election Countdown” series. Each of the four candidates has been featured.
Patch has also been doing a series of candidate questions; I’m not sure how far along they are, but here’s the interview with Etel Haxhiaj.
