Candidate Forums

League of Women Voters^®
of South San Mateo County

As part of our ongoing non-partisan mission to educate voters on issues and candidates, the LWVSSMC organizes and hosts candidate forums.
Candidate forums are conducted for contested elections for:

city councils

school districts

special district offices

These forums are an excellent opportunity to meet the candidates and become familiar with the issues in upcoming elections.
In organizing the forum, the League:

invites all candidates to participate

coordinates with the local community to determine date and site

promotes community participation through public announcements

partners with local community organizations to co-host the forum

provides an impartial LWV moderator

provides LWV volunteers to facilitate questions from the audience

provides video taping of the forum to be viewed on public access television

If you would like to request a candidate forum for your community, please contact the League at candidate_forums@lwvssmc.org
