Darke County Candidates on Cable
Editor: County News Online will be posting highlights of the forum Friday. If you missed it, you will be able to see it as follows:
The Candidates’ Forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Darke County will be broadcast on GPAT following the event, Monday, February 27.
If you were unable to attend the Candidates’ Night, please be sure to tune into Greenville Public Access Television (GPAT), Channel 5, Thursday, March 1 @ 7 p.m.; Friday, March 2 @1 p.m.; Sunday, March 4th @ 1 p.m. and Monday, March 5 @ 9 a.m. The program will be broadcast in its entirety.
The candidates were videotaped and those citizens unable to attend the Forum will have an opportunity to view the candidates and hear their responses to questions. The program will be about 2 hours.
The event begins with very brief introductions by unopposed candidates and presentations on the local issues by a member of the League.
Forum candidates were given two minute introductory speeches. Following that, they answered questions submitted by the audience and discussed issues. They concluded with a one minute statement. Opposed candidates involved included:
* Darke County Common Pleas Judge (Juvenile/Probate Division), (Vote for one): Jason Aslinger ( R), incumbent) or James Detling (R).
* Darke County Clerk of Courts (Vote for one): Amanda Farley (R) or Cindy Pike (R), incumbent).
* Darke County Commissioner (Vote for one): Diane Delaplane (R), incumbent) or Aaron Ward (R).
The League of Women Voters is a non-partisan political organization with the major purpose being to inform voters about the candidates and issues. Special thanks to Nick Schmidt of Schmidt Photography for videotaping the evening, Todd Kaiser from Bach to Rock for the sound system and for setting up the equipment and to the American Legion for use of their facility. PLEASE REMEMBER TO VOTE, TUESDAY, MARCH 6!.
