​Kindly note that all candidates may greet audience members and distribute campaign materials in the lobby starting at 6:30 PM.  The East Bay Chamber of Commerce will provide refreshments. There will be no campaign materials allowed in the Town Council Chamber.  

The forum questions will be submitted by the audience, by the candidates themselves, and by the co-sponsors.  The questions will be written on small index cards and placed in boxes.  There are two boxes: one for state office questions and one for Town Council questions.  These questions will be screened by the LWVRI to assure that all are concisely stated, non-redundant, and issue-oriented. The Moderator will choose the questions to ask.
