Janesville City Council

City Council Candidate Forum March 2

A Janesville City Council Candidate Forum is scheduled for Tuesday evening, March 2, 2010, at 6:00p.m., at the Hedberg Public Library program room. The Janesville League of Women Voters and JATV are cosponsoring this opportunity for the four candidates to express their views on issues faced by the city. The public is invited to attend and submit questions as time permits.

The forum will be video taped and replayed on JATV several times before the election. The playback schedule will be distributed that night.

Informed voters is the goal of the the League. According to president, Kay Deupree, the League is a political, but strictly nonpartisan organization that does not support candidates, even in nonpartisan local elections.

Janesville School Board

There will be a forum with all of the candidates on Monday, March 1, 2010 from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. This will be broadcast live on cable channels 96 and 993. The forum is co-sponsored by the Janesville League of Women Voters and the Janesville Area Council PTA. Questions during the program may be phoned in to 743-5138.

Six contested County Board races will have candidates' interviews taped for later broadcasting on JATV.
