Use the LWVCC Candidate Guide
|
Once you know which candidates will be on your ballot, learn about the candidates and make your choices.
The nonpartisan organization VoteChampaign compiles a Candidate Guide for each contested election in Champaign County.
The Candidate Guide features questions and answers from each candidate in a contested race. It includes links to LWVCC forums or interviews, and candidate website links, social media, email, and phone number if available. There are also links to candidate forum videos available from elsewhere in the community. |
Watch Candidate Forums and Interviews
|
LWVCC regularly offers Candidate Forums before each Champaign County election. Candidate Forums are generally videotaped and made available on YouTube. It's a chance to see candidates in comparison to each other.
For some elections, the LWVCC records interviews with individual candidates. These videos are also made available on YouTube. Watch for announcements on our website, Facebook, Instagram or in the LWVCC newsletter. |
