I have a question I would like the candidates to address. What is the format for asking questions?
For the forum we have scheduled 5 questions from the audience to be asked of all candidates by the moderator. Audience questions will be vetted by two volunteers. We will also have questions asked by the moderator that were submitted by a panel of experts. Prior to the forum we plan to post the answers to candidate questionnaires. Please stay tuned for updates. Thanks.
