Charles City Chamber, AAUW Host Candidate Forums Wednesday, Thursday
The public can hear from candidates for the contested Floyd County Supervisor, Iowa House and Iowa Senate races during a pair of candidate forums next week.
The candidate forums Wednesday (10.12) and Thursday (10.13) at the Charles City Senior Center are hosted by the Charles City Area Chamber of Commerce and the American Association of University Women (AAUW). Forums both nights begin at 7 p.m.
Floyd County Supervisor candidates will be featured Wednesday night. Candidates running for the three Floyd County Supervisor seats include Julius Bryant, Doug Kamm and Mark Kuhn in District 1; Dennis Kiefer and Joshua Mack in District 2; plus Jeff Hawbaker, Jim Lundberg and Jayson Ryner in District 3.
The Iowa House and Senate candidates looking to represent Floyd County will be on hand Thursday night. Running for Iowa House District 58 are Dene Lundberg and Charles Thomson, while the candidates for Iowa Senate District 29 are Jenn Wolff and Sandy Solomon.
The Chamber says all candidates were invited to participate and all have confirmed they will take part, with the exception of Ryner who is unavailable either of the two nights.
AAUW member Anna Burnham said, “We appreciate these candidates being willing to step forward and represent us in Floyd County. We hope the public will take this opportunity to meet and hear from the candidates as they make informed decisions on who to vote for November 8.”
The forums are open to the public and will be recorded for playback on the Charles City Public Access Network (Mediacom Channel 4 or online at www.charlescitypan.com). The public will not be able to ask questions directly to the candidates, but are encouraged to submit questions in advance for consideration to [email protected].
