HEAR DIRECTLY FROM THE CANDIDATES
The 2026 Candidates Forum will bring candidates and community members together in one setting for public discussion.
Attendees will have an opportunity to hear candidates address issues of importance to the community and gain a better understanding of their priorities and perspectives.
The forum also encourages residents to participate in the democratic process by asking questions, listening to different viewpoints, and gathering information before making their own decisions at the ballot box.
AN OPPORTUNITY FOR COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
Community forums can provide an important space for residents and candidates to interact beyond campaign advertisements and other traditional forms of political communication.
The KBAC forum will focus on conversation, information and engagement, encouraging attendees to take an active role in understanding the issues and participating in the electoral process.
Whether you are a longtime voter, a first-time voter, or simply interested in learning more about the candidates, the forum provides an opportunity to be part of the conversation.
