LVW Candidates Forum is Oct. 20

The League of Women Voters of Plainfield will hold a Candidates Forum on Tuesday, Oct. 20 in the Anne Louise Davis Room of the Plainfield Public Library, from 6:45 p.m. to 8:15 p.m. The moderator will be Marlene Sincaglia of the LWV of Berkeley Heights, New Providence and Summit.

Local contests include three three-year school board seats and two four-year City Council seats.

According to a flier just released by the League, the school board candidates' forum is canceled due to a scheduling conflict. The school district calendar lists a business meeting for that evening, and three of the four candidates are currently serving on the board.

The council seats are for the Second Ward and the First & Fourth Ward at-large, with a Democrat and an Independent vying for each seat.

The League will publish biographical information submitted by candidates, as well as responses to League questions. The publication will be available at the forum and also on the League website (www.lwvplainfield.org).

Members of the public are asked to arrive at least 15 minutes early for the forum. The Plainfield Public Library is located at 800 Park Avenue with parking available in lots at the front and rear of the building.

The League reminds people to vote on Tuesday, Nov. 3. Polls are open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m.
