MT. VERNON, IL — The Mt. Vernon Business Women’s Club along with the Greater Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce will host the 2020 Candidates Forum at the Rolland W. Lewis Community Building in Veterans Park this Thursday at 6:30pm.

All candidates who are running are invited to attend as are all those who have a vested interest to vote for future leaders of their community.

This is an issues-focused information forum only, not a debate or an open forum. The forum is to help educate the public on who is running for the different positions in the March 17 Primary Election, so the public can make an educated choice for leadership.

WMIX will moderate and broadcast the forum live on AM940/96.5FM and via the stream at wmix94.com. For more information contact Sherry Meadows at 618-204-8511.
