Kosciusko County Bar Association and Kosciusko Chamber of Commerce announced the rescheduling of a candidate forum that will feature the four-way race for Superior Court III and several other competitive primary races.
The forum was originally scheduled for April 22; however, due to the COVID-19 crisis, the event has now been rescheduled to 6 p.m. May 15. While a live and in-person forum is preferred, the event may be physically closed to the public given social distancing recommendations.
The candidate and judicial forum will seek participation from candidates running for election to the bench in Kosciusko Superior Court III, as well as the candidates for the county commissioners northern district seat and county council at-large seats, according to a news release from the Chamber.
The Bar Association and Chamber leaders are working to coordinate alternative formats to allow for livestream of the event or other appropriate means of public “attendance” during these times. More information will follow as it becomes available.
Citizens should be advised that the election is scheduled for 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. June 2. Polling locations will likely change or be reduced, and further information regarding such will not be available until after next week. Early in-person voting has changed to May 26 to 29.
