Voters are invited to submit questions to candidates by emailing them to lwvnaperville@gmail.com no later than 5 p.m. October 2nd.

Please visit the LWV of Naperville website for more information and/or join the organization. All persons aged 16 and older are welcome to become members of the League of Women Voters.

Unlike a debate, a forum involves a neutral trained moderator from outside the district who presents questions to candidates for their live responses.

The League of Women Voters, founded in 1920, envisions a democracy where every individual has a desire, the right, the knowledge and the confidence to participate. The League believes in the power of citizens to create a more perfect democracy and has been conducting forums as part of its mission of voter education for decades. The LWV is proud to be non-partisan, neither supporting nor opposing candidates or political parties at any level of government, but always working on vital issues of concern to its members and the public.

The League of Women Voters encourages all voters to mark their calendars for November 8 as a reminder to vote.
