GUERNSEY – Guernsey VFW post 4471 and its auxiliary hosted a Meet the Candidates event last Tuesday at the VFW hall. In attendance were representatives and candidates for all state offices, the candidates running for senate district 6 and house district 4, county commissioner candidates, and town council candidates.
The informal nature of the three-hour event allowed the community to come whenever was convenient for them to talk one-on-one with the candidates and ask questions in order to make a more informed decision at the ballot box on election day, August 20th.
“I’m trying to decide between six candidates for senate district 6. This gives me the opportunity to see them in person and see which one impresses me more,” Beverly Spungin said.
Organizer Ron Green said the turnout numbers weren’t as high as in previous years, but there were still quite a few people who showed up. He was also pleased those who did come were able to speak in person with all but two candidates (Sen. John Barasso and Rep. Harriet Hageman) who didn’t make it, but had representatives in attendance.)
