Candidate Forum – Orchard Park Community Center

Howy Holmes, an Orchard Park citizen “who gets things done,” has collaborated with the League of Women Voters for Buffalo-Niagara to bring you this Candidate Forum at the Town of Orchard Park Community Activity Center located at 4520 California Road, Orchard Park.  Please come to hear the Town of Orchard Park Supervisor, Town Council, Superintendent of Highways and Erie County Comptroller voice their thoughts.

October 20. 7:00 – 9:00 pm

The League of Women Voters has a long history of hosting nonpartisan candidate forums and educating the American people. Every election season, Leagues across the county hold hundreds of candidate debates and forums to help voters learn about the candidates on their ballot.  Attending or watching a candidate debate is one of the best ways to prepare for casting your ballot. As a core feature of U.S. politics, candidate debates help voters learn more about a candidate and his or her stance on key issues.  Four reasons to watch a candidate forum:

1. Candidate debates help us get informed and learn more about the candidates.

2. Debates provide us with an opportunity for us to ask the hard questions. 

3. Democracy works best when we engage with it!

4. The candidates that we vote into office will make important decisions that affect you, your family and your community. We all must weigh in!
