[Lwvcnmtopics] Candidate forums 2023 update - volunteers still needed

[Mary H Smith]

We're baaaack - We need more help with Candidate Forums!

Since our last post, LWVCNM has been asked to host two additional candidate forums, and one of the previously announced forums has a date change. We need your help staffing these.

For all of you who have previously communicated with Mary or Gina about volunteering to staff one or more of the forums, thank you! Please know we are not ignoring your kind offers to help. We are busily trying to place volunteers when and where they are needed. If you volunteered for either or both of the ABQ City Council District 8 or District 6 forums, and want to change your offer or volunteer for another forum, let us know. We'll be in touch with all volunteers soon.

We need volunteers to staff these forums as:
            1. moderators  (we need you; we have some volunteers, but can always use more)
            2. timekeepers
            3. question organizers

Right now, this is our schedule of forums the League has agreed to staff:

            1.   Thursday, September 28th - ABQ CITY COUNCIL DIST. 8 CANDIDATE FORUM
Location:  Holiday Park Community Center, 11710 Comanche Rd NE, Albuquerque

If you can staff one or more of these forums, please email Mary at maryhenrie at msn.com<mailto:maryhenrie at msn.com> and Gina at gmahfouz at comcast.net<mailto:gmahfouz at comcast.net>. Let us know if you have any questions or if you want training resources - we have links to the recordings of our 2022 forum volunteer trainings.

Thank you for helping with this critical LWV voter education effort.
