Candidate Forums WILL be Televised

But the District 14 forum will not be live, rather it will be taped for later playback on OCAT. Here are the details from LWV to follow-up my last post:

Oshkosh Area League of Women Voters To Host Two Primary Election Forums

The Oshkosh Area League of Women Voters will hold two
separate candidates' forums before the February 19th primary election.

A forum for the six Oshkosh Area School Board candidates
is set for Thursday, February 7, 6:30 to 7:30 in the Oshkosh City
Council Chambers, 4th floor City Hall.

The six candidates are incumbents Tom McDermott and Ben Schneider II.
The challengers are John Daggett, Kevin Jahnke, John Lemberger and
Michele Monte. Panel members are Jim Fitzhenry, managing editor of
the Oshkosh Northwestern and Frankie Mengeling, vice-president Oshkosh
Area LWV.

This forum will be broadcast on Oshkosh Community Access Television
CitiCable 10 and simulcast by WOCT 101.9 FM, Oshkosh Community Radio.

The other forum centers on a primary race for County Board District
14. The reduction of the county board from 38 to 36 districts has put
two incumbents, Donna Lohry and Claude Thompson vying for this newly
created district. Their challenger, a former county board member, is
Harold Steinike. To see the outline of this district go to
http://www.co.winnebago.wi.us/, click on "election information" and
then "supervisory district maps."

This forum is set for Monday, February 4 at St. Andrew's Lutheran
Church, 1100 E. Murdock Avenue from 5:30 to 6:30. Panel members are
Alex Hummel, editorial editor for the Oshkosh Northwestern and Frankie
Mengeling, vice-president Oshkosh Area LWV. This forum will be
videotaped for later showings on OCAT CitiCable 10.

The public is invited to attend these forums. They may submit
questions for the candidates in person at the forum or electronically
to fgmem@sbcglobal.net.

The League of Women Voters is a non-partisan, political organization;
one of its main goals is to provide election forums to increase voter
awareness of issues.
