Sole pre-primary school voter forum Monday
Posted by: Steve Brandt under People and neighborhoods, Politics and government Updated: August 2, 2012 - 10:26 AM
Your only pre-primary chance to hear school candidates jointly answer questions on Minneapolis school issues comes Monday.
The voter forum will be held from 7:30-9 p.m. at Plymouth Congregational Church, 1900 Nicollet Av. S.
Two school board races will have primaries on Aug. 14. One is the citywide race in which incumbent Carla Bates is challenged by Willis G. Trueblood, Doug Mann and Janice Mae Harmon. The other is the District 4 race for an area stretching from downtown to the Isles area. The candidates there are Josh Reimnitz, William Lange and Patricia Wycoff.
Although they will not appear on the primary ballot, unopposed candidates Tracine Asberry in southwest Minneapolis and Kim Ellison in north Minneapolis also have been invited to the forum.
A map of the district boundaries is available:
