RICHMOND TOWN COUNCIL and SCHOOL COMMITTEE FORUMS to be BROADCAST OCTOBER 9th & 10th.
The Ocean State Current, the media arm of the RI Center for Freedom & Prosperity will hold two Candidate E-Forums featuring candidates for the Town of Richmond’s town council and school committee. These forums are part of the Current’s Election Waves coverage, which frequently highlights local races.
The school committee forum will take place on Wednesday, October 9 at 7:00 PM, followed by the town council forum on Thursday, October 10 at 6:00 PM. Both events will be streamed live and available on-demand at OceanStateCurrent.com/ElectionWaves.
Moderated by Mike Stenhouse, CEO of the Center, the forums will feature five town council candidates and two school committee candidates who have accepted the invitation to share their platforms with voters. All candidates, regardless of party affiliation, are invited to participate. Viewers can find more details and past interviews on the Ocean State Current’s Election Waves page.
As part of our ongoing Election Waves Coverage, The Ocean State Current occasionally invites all qualifying candidates in a specific election race to appear as guests, with an opportunity to inform voters of their political views and policy positions.
