You will have the opportunity to know more about the candidates running for the State Senate in District 1 at a forum sponsored by The League of Women Voters of Door County on October 10. Andrea Gage-Michaels (D) and Andre Jacque (R) have agreed to participate in the Candidate Forum that will be held at the Southern Door High School Library. The League of Women Voters of Door County Event Coordinator Dan Powers says the forum is not a debate but a good way for the public to learn how each candidate stands on important issues, regardless of party affiliation.

Powers notes that the Candidate Forum will last 90 minutes and begin at 6:30 pm on Monday, October 10. You can submit questions for the forum to the League of Women Voters of Door County, with both candidates receiving an equal opportunity to speak to the voters. The District 1 State Senate seat covers Door and Kewaunee counties and parts of Brown, Outagamie, Manitowoc, and Calumet counties.
