To provide information about candidates running in our local primaries, the Forum Team is taking a novel approach. We are interviewing each candidate separately on Zoom, asking the same three questions of each person running for a given office. The resulting short videos will be posted on the LWVBWC website, so that voters will be able to hear from the candidates they’re interested in without searching through a lengthy forum for their answers.
The offices in question are:
- Representative to the House from Congressional District 2 (8 candidates)
- Representative to the Washington House from Legislative District 42 (3 candidates)
- Commissioner for Public Utility District 1, District 2 (3 candidates)
Some of the candidate interviews are already available at https://lwvbellinghamwhatcom.org/2024-primaries. The rest should be posted by early in July. The primary election date is August 6.
