There are no candidate forums planned.
 
Dwight also asked me about this. He is willing to help make one happen.
If there are others who would be willing to work with Iris and Dwight, it might 
still happen.
 
A forum could be held at the Calvert House or other location. (It is too late 
to have it at Town Hall, as that would require approval by the Council and 
that could not happen before the election.) 
 
Arrangements would have to be made quickly to get an announcement in the 
next Crier (the deadline is the 15th but sometimes it gets stretched a little later), 
and it would have to be held in the beginning of May - after the Crier comes out. 
On or after Wednesday May 2 and before the election on Monday, May 7.
 
On a similar topic, there will be no written Candidate Forum in the Town Crier. 
The legislation I put forward to authorize such a forum was voted down by the 
council, so there will be no information there either.
