Candidate Forum Tonight

TYLER — The League of Women Voters of Tyler/Smith County holds a candidate forum for the November elections tonight at 7:00 at the TISD Plyler Complex, 807 West Glenwood. The League’s Shirley Hightower says, “We see this as part of our most important mission of informing voters and encouraging voters to have a voice.” She adds that this is your chance to meet the candidates, find out what they’re all about, and then make up your own mind on how you’re going to vote. Local candidates for Congress and the state legislature have been invited, as well as hopefuls for agriculture commissioner and State Supreme Court Place 9. The League will also present the winners of a student video competition on getting out the vote. You can go to http://www.lwvtexas.org to download the League’s statewide Voters Guide. Don’t forget, today’s the last day to register to vote in the November elections.
