Civil Court Candidates Forum 

The six downtown political clubs (VID, DID, CoDA, VRDC, Grand Street Democrats, and Three Bridges) will be sponsoring a civil court candidates forum of Monday, February 5^th from 6:00-9:00 PM. This will be a virtual only forum. You can register here. After you register you will receive a link for the forum.

The details of the forum are as follows:

• We will be hosting candidates for Judicial Districts 1 and 2 and Countywide.
• The judicial screening panel is expected to report out 3 candidates for each open seat. So, we anticipate hosting 12 candidates in total. All the candidates who are reported out will be invited to speak.
• Each candidate will have three minutes to present and seven minutes for Q & A.
• The first two questions will be asked by the moderator and will be standard for all candidates. The remainder of the questions will come from the forum attendees.
• A maximum of thirty seconds will be allocated for asking questions and one minute for answering questions. We will be using a Zoom imbedded timer to make sure that the forum moves ahead smoothly.
• Discussion of the candidates and the endorsement vote by ViD members will take place on February 8^th at the VID General Membership Meeting.
