September 3, 2020 – As part of our ongoing, non-partisan efforts to educate voters about local and state candidates running in the upcoming elections, the League of Women Voters of Western Nevada County will host a series of virtual forums throughout September. The forums are an excellent way for Nevada County citizens to hear candidates’ points of view and become informed about local issues.

You can submit questions for candidates in advance by emailing info@lwvwnc.org. In the subject line, please write: Question for forum name here. Questions must be specific about the position and not specific to only one candidate.

There are two ways to watch forums live. Watch on Zoom by registering through the links below.

Watch on Facebook on either LWVWNC page or YubaNet’s page.

To watch afterward on demand, you can find YouTube recordings on the LWVWNC website and on YubaNet’s YouTube channel. Other media outlets may broadcast or make the recordings available as well.
