The Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce will present a series of candidate forums for residents to gain knowledge about candidates running for public office in the November 8th elections. There will be forums dedicated to the School Board, City Council and the Mayoral races.
The Chamber of Commerce Mayoral Candidate Forum will be held on Monday, October 24th at 6:00pm in the City Council Chambers at the Dover City Hall. The City Council Candidate Forums will immediately follow, beginning at approximately 7:00pm. Each Ward, as well as At Large Candidates, will be separated into their own forums.
The Chamber of Commerce School Board Candidate Forum will take place on Thursday, October 27th at 6:00pm at the School Board Chamber in the McConnell Center, room 306.
In addition to the Candidate Forums, on Tuesday, October 25th, Dover Listens will be hosting Community Conversations from 6:00pm to 8:30pm at the Rivermill at Dover Landing. The conversation format will give candidates the opportunity to hear from constituents about what they would like from their representatives.
At the Chamber of Commerce Forums, candidates will be given the opportunity to make opening and closing statements and will be asked a series of questions developed by the Forum Committee. The Dover Listens Community Conversations will be more of a small group, facilitated dialogue between residents and candidates.
Don Briand, News Director of WOKQ 97.5 will moderate this year’s Chamber of Commerce forums. All Chamber of Commerce Candidate Forums will be broadcast live on Dover’s local Channel 22 with multiple rebroadcasts likely.
