Forum Protocols:
1. This is a FORUM. The definition of a forum is to ask all candidates the same question and hear their response in 2 minutes or less per candidate.
2. The questions were curated with input from citizens via email over the last ten days. We have made every attempt to ask pointed, thought-provoking, and unbiased questions that will cover a multitude of issues.
3. We will round-robin all questions between candidates so each candidate can go first.
4. Interrupting the candidates will not be tolerated, and you will be asked to leave. It’s important to allow them to get their message out.
5. The organizers will be recording the meeting and will publish it.
6. We want to bring similar events to the voting public in the future. We appreciate your cooperation in making this a courteous, informative, and dignified event.

Richard Chew | Featured Speaker
As a long-time Chicago Guy, Richard was born and raised in Chicago and Southwestern Michigan (Union Pier). He is proud of the fact that he has visited all 50 of the great states of The United States of America and keeps his passport current to make sure traveling the world is always a “ready to go” item. He and his wife Anne love the City and Suburbs of Chicago and all their greatness. The new show ChewViews will focus on moving our political, social, economic, gender and cultural conversation forward and to make sure we don’t just save our democracy in 2024, but also help to create a roadmap for all Progressives to be more regularly involved in their political and social destinies. Chews Views will be intellectual and focus on positive talk and solutions…but don’t get it “Twisted”…we may bring some “smashmouth dialogue” to the program just to make sure you are awake, not just “woke” Monday through Friday 6-8AM!

The Kane County convention is held every two years following the primary election on even-numbered years. This is when all new PCs are officially elected and can thus elect the Chair and Executive Board members of the Kane County Democrats. This is a weighted vote based on the number of Democratic ballots pulled in your precinct for that primary election. We will have the weighted number once the ballot is certified following the March 19, 2024 election. The scheduled County Convention is a set date required by Illinois state law, which will take place this year on Wednesday, April 17, 2024, 730pm.
If you are a newly elected PC for the 2024-2026 term, please email us at info@kanedems.org to ensure that your email is included in our invite. Please note that this is a private event and that only elected and appointed PCs will be allowed in.
