Candidates' Forum in the Works

The League of Women Voters of Plainfield is planning to hold its traditional candidates' forum on Oct. 27, about a week before the Nov. 2 general election.

Two City Council seats are up for election on Nov. 2. Contenders for the Second and Third Wards at-large seat are June Democratic primary winner Rebecca Williams and Republican James Pivnichny, who ran for mayor in 2009. The First Ward contest pits Democratic incumbent Councilman William Reid against Republican challenger Sean T. Alfred.

The forum will be conducted by a League moderator and will follow guidelines established by the League to ensure fairness and impartiality. The Plainfield League will compile a fact sheet on the candidates, along with their responses to three questions on current city issues.

Details on the time and location of the forum will follow.

  1. Bernice: the local LWV is seeking co-sponsors for the debate and has reached out to block associations. Friends of Sleepy Hollow (FOSH) has signed on. Perhaps other interested groups could contact the LWV through your site. Thank you, Pat Turner Kavanaugh
