The 27th Ward Democratic Executive Committee will host a forum Thursday, March 26 with candidates contending in May’s primary. The forum will include mayoral candidate and former city councilman Jim Kenney and city council candidates Blondell Reynolds Brown, Helen Gym, Ed Neilson, and W. Wilson Goode, Jr., Paul Steinke, and Sherrie Cohen.

The public is welcome to attend this meeting, which will take place at Rosenberger Hall at the University of the Sciences (600 S. 43rd Street, near Woodland Ave.), starting at 7:30 p.m.

This forum was originally scheduled for March 5 but was cancelled due to snow.

The primary election will be held May 19 and the general election is slated for Nov. 3. You can get up to speed on the council and mayoral candidates on the Committee of Seventy website.

    I am looking forward to this meeting. I have some questions.
    To start with;
    Why do our politicians continue to associate with known felons who are involved in GRAFT and RICO?
    Why do our politicians permit their colleagues to break the law screw the people and steal from the state.
    Will any one on the panel sign a fiduciary agreement putting the city and its people before themselves.
    Will these candidates admit to their conflicts with their city job by their affiliations with special interest groups.
