Darke County League of Women Voters
Candidates
Night on Youtube.com
The Candidates' Forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Darke
County will be broadcast in its entirety on YouTube.com
If you were unable to attend the Candidates’ Night, please be sure go
online to see the program. It lasts 1 hour and 30 minutes. Paste
this link in your Internet browser http://youtu.be/byssYr1Eb9Y or go to
www.youtube.com and in the search bar put in: Darke County League of
Women Voters Fall 2012 Candidates Night to access it.
The event begins with very brief introductions by unopposed Darke
County candidates on the General Election ballot who were in
attendance. Then the forum begins with the Candidates for 2nd
district Court of Appeals (vote for one), Carley Ingram and Jeffrey M.
Welbaum. Following that, the candidates for the 80th House
District for State Representative participated in the Forum (vote for
one), Richard N. Adams ( R) or Dave W. Fisher (D). The portion of
the Forum for the 84th House District (vote for one) with Ronald L.
Hammons (D) and Jim Buchy (R) was not held due to a late cancellation
due to illness by Mr. Hammons.
The evening concludes with two non-League members Carl Jones and
Alex Warner reading the explanation of the two State Issues and the
pros and cons of those issues.
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.
It is hoped that when Greenville Public Access Television (GPAT),
Channel 5 receives a long awaited electrical part that the program will
also be broadcast there. Watch GPAT for scheduled times prior to
Election Day, if and when the repair has been completed.
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, to the American Legion for use
of their facility and to Jon McGreevey of Greenville Schools for his
help with YouTube. VOTE NOVEMBER 6.
