Candidate Forum a Success
Arizona League of Conservation Voters Education Fund Education Fund co-hosted a candidate forum for Congressional District 1 candidates on June 8th in Camp Verde. Attendance was fantastic with nearly 100 voters and seven of the candidates participating. We applaud the candidates who attended for their articulation, their frankness and their willingness to tell voters where they stand. We are saddened by those candidates who did not confirm attendance and deeply saddened that one of the front-running candidates, Sydney Hay, cancelled her attendance at the last moment.
Stay tuned as we will be posting the audio and video of the forum on this website.
