WATCH RECORDED CANDIDATE FORUMS - PRIMARY ELECTION 2020
The Primary election forums are for races in which there are more than two candidates running for the same office and after which the top two will compete against each other in the General election.
The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan organization. We do not support or oppose any candidates or political parties. Our forums are intended to provide voters with good information to help them make voting decisions.
