Tonight is a great opportunity to see the people who will make your city’s decisions in the future as they answer generic and more pointed questions, and question one another. Audience members can submit questions, and they will also be taken over the phone. The forum begins at 7:00 pm featuring State Sen. Cathy Giessel, R,  and challenger Ron Devon, an Independent, both from Anchorage. One of them will be our representative from the newly redistricted Senate District N.  Their segment is slated to run for 45 minutes.

After that, it’s the turn of city council incumbants Ristine Casagranda, Jean Bardarson and Marianna Keil, and their challengers Kenneth Blatchford and Tim McDonald. They will have an hour to make opening and closing statements, take questions, and ask one another challenging questions. The event will be broadcast on GCI cable for those who wish to stay home, out of the rain. But it would be great to see a good turnout tonight, and on election day.
