Greenville BOE candidates forum on cable

The Candidates' Forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Darke County will be broadcast on GPAT following the event, Monday, October 21 (7 PM).

If you were unable to attend the Candidates’ Night, held at the American Legion, please be sure to tune into Greenville Public Access Television (GPAT), Channel 5 at a time convenient to you: Thursday, October 24 @ 4 PM, Friday, October 25 @ 7 PM; Saturday, October 26 @ 7 PM and Sunday, October 27 @ 4 PM. The program will be broadcast in its entirety.

The candidates were videotaped and those citizens unable to attend the Forum will have an opportunity to view the candidates and hear their responses to questions. The program will be less than 1 1/2 hours.

The event began with very brief introductions by unopposed Greenville City candidates on the ballot who were in attendance. There was a brief presentation by a League member about Issue 1, the Darke County Park District levy. Then the evening focused on the five opposed Greenville Board of Education candidates.

Candidates gave two minute introductory speeches. Following that, they answered questions submitted by the audience and discussed issues. They concluded with a one minute statement. Opposed candidates involved include:

Greenville Board of Education (Vote for three): Sue Bowman (incumbent), Dave Ernst, David Madden, Brad Gettinger and Cindy Scott (incumbent).

The League of Women Voters is a non-partisan political organization with the major purpose being to inform voters about the candidates and issues. Special thanks to Nick Schmidt of Schmidt Photography for videotaping the evening, Todd Kaiser from Bach to Rock for the sound system and for setting up the equipment and to the American Legion for use of their facility. PLEASE REMEMBER TO VOTE, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5.
