Come learn about the candidates, listen to their views on the important issues and opportunities facing Gunnison County and the region and why they think they are best suited to lead our community into the future. This forum isn't a fluffy free-for-all. It's a moderated debate where tough questions are asked in a spirit of civility and in an effort to help voters understand precisely what each candidate stands for, or against. If you have an issue that you think deserves to be discussed or a specific question that you'd like to see asked, please drop a line to Times editor and debate moderator Chris Dickey (641.1414, editor@gunnisontimes.com). Also remember that if you can't make it to the debate, you can listen to it later right here.
