We are in the final leg of the 2022 Midterm Election season. This has traditionally been the time when the League of Women Voters hold forums showcasing candidates for questioning by the public. This year was to be no different until a group of local Republican candidates decided to forego the traditional, non-partisan forums. By rejecting participation in the forums they are not only denying the public the opportunity to ask them questions, they are denying the public the opportunity to ask questions of their Democratic opponents too.
Fox Valley Moxie and the Dundee Township Democrats believe that candidates should always be willing and anxious to answer the voters’ questions, so we’re holding “The Voters Deserve Answers Forum”!
The candidates who will be at the forum and ready to answer your questions include:
Suzanne Ness, House Rep. District 66, Linda Robertson, House Rep. District 65, Ted Penensis, County Board District 16, Courtney Boe, Kane County Board District 21, Cherryl Strathmann, Kane County Board, District 20, Vern Tepe, Kane County Board, District 22, Chris Kious, County Board District 23, and Jarett Sanchez, County Board District 24.
We welcome you to submit questions for the candidates to: foxvalleymoxie@gmail.com
We cannot guarantee that all questions submitted will be asked.
